EQUINOX Edition 24 – Pressure Points
WINEMAKER’S NOTES
The 24th edition of Equinox , Pressure Points, sits with an opaque cardinal core that gets more lucid as it creeps toward the rim. Powerful aromatics characterized by ripe red fruit and spices dominate the open—raspberry, terracotta, baking spice and bramble bush with a hint of Tahitian vanilla. On the palate, intensifying raspberry reduction, wild blackberry and Maraschino cherry straddle the vein of acidity running through the midpalate, providing some lift. On the close, chewy tannins permeate throughout with ease, finishing with a touch of warm strawberry.
