13.5% abv. Very fresh, with noticeable fruit. Concord grapes on the palate. Lots of tannic grip. Still has room to peak.

2008 Fratelli Brovia Barolo Villero

Nebbiolo more

9/14/2020 - DrakkarNoir Likes this wine: NR

14.5% abv. Spicy, slightly medicinal cherry/plum on the nose, makes me think of Dr. Pepper. A sweet if perhaps short finish, with quite subtle tannins. In a good spot at the moment.

Bekaa Valley Red Blend more

14% abv. Fruity cherry nose. Medium bodied, sweet finish, acidic with mild tannins. Notice the alcohol on the finish. Found this to be brash and not food friendly.

2013 Jean Foillard Morgon Cuvée 3.14

Gamay more

1/10/2017 - DrakkarNoir Likes this wine: NR

A floral, earthy nose with some fruit (blood oranges). A bit of funk, like decaying fruit, on the nose. Lighter bodied, but with tart acidity and a persistent finish. This will benefit from cellaring. 12.5% abv.

2004 R. López de Heredia Rioja Reserva Viña Tondonia

Tempranillo Blend, Tempranillo more

1/9/2017 - DrakkarNoir Likes this wine: NR

Cherries, tobacco, and a hint of coconut/dill on the nose. Medium bodied, with lively acidity and subtle tannins that lurk on the finish. 13% abv.

Drinking alongside the '04 Bosconia (13.5% abv), which is much riper on the nose and a bit flat.
