2022 Early Mountain Elvium, Virginia, United States

The 2022 Early Mountain Eluvium opens with a deep, expressive nose of ripe plum and blackberry, layered with cool mint, cedar, and wild garrigue that lend both freshness and complexity. On the palate, the dark fruit core is echoed with precision, framed by savory spice and earthy undertones. Medium-bodied yet firmly structured, the wine showcases a persistent finish driven by the energetic interplay of bright acidity and finely knit tannins. This balance of vibrancy and depth highlights both the elegance of Virginia terroir and the Bordeaux-inspired craftsmanship of Early Mountain Vineyards.
