The 2020 Kerner is understated and remarkably pretty with dusty dried flowers, flint and stone that reveal crushed apricot. There's a purity within that makes the first impression, silky yet focused. A salty flourish up front paves the way for the ripe stone fruits and inner florals that form toward the close. The finish is long and lightly structured, leaving a staining of tart citrus and minerals that linger incredibly long. Wow, the 2020 Kerner is full of tension but also remarkably balanced. This is just a baby today.
