94 pts. Vinous -- Spicy and peppery to the core, the 2019 Twin Bear wafts up with a beguiling mix of wild blueberries, spiced citrus peels, pencil shavings, and invigorating hints of pine. It's silky smooth with ripe textural fruits to match, finding contrasts through a salty core of brisk acidity and savory herbal tones that build toward the close. The 2019 tapers off with a balanced structural mix of fine-grained tannins and primary concentration, promising many years of positive evolution.
