The 2021 Orlando lifts up with dusty florals and mentholated herbs complicating a crushed raspberry core. Juicy and soft-textured, the 2021 excels with its depths of potent red and blue fruits, all guided by brisk acidity. It leaves a twang of sour orange that keeps the mouth watering, as rosy inner florals and hints of exotic spice fade. While not built for the cellar, the 2021 delivers a lot of balanced pleasure. Drink now until 2028. 91 pts, Eric Guido, Vinous
