Wall Wednesday - blueberry pie, inky full body, long smooth finish. A wine pleasure.

Simple nose. It was a fruit bomb on the first sip, but after a few sips it settled down to fairly neutral. Medium acidic. Not a lot of secondary flavors, mainly just dark fruit and mild tannin. Finish is unripe cherry and vanilla. Flavor doesn’t linger. Doesn’t taste much like a Malbec honestly.

Fabulous Cab Franc.
Nose was spicy and rich, clearly Cab Franc.
Palate was rich, with deep, dark fruit and a long spicy finish.
Served with smoked pulled pork sandwiches and it rocked with the food. The smoked pork really highlighting the rich fruit and spice notes of the wine while the wine really highlighted the smokiness of the meat.
Would buy again.

What a pleasant surprise. Found sole bottle mis-racked in the wine cellar. Having no experience with Nefarious pinot (great fan of their Cab Franc and RX-3), did not hold much hope for vibrancy after six years. PnP. Immensely enjoyable. Soft, balanced fruit in a restrained Burgundian style. Wish I owned more.

Lake Chelan Syrah Blend, Syrah more

7/2/2022 - DougLee wrote: 87 points

Salmon pink hue. Nose of prickly pine, strawberry, cherry blossom. Layers of piquant red raspberry with a stony acid kick. Moderate length finish of tart red fruit and stone. Simple and direct. A good quaffer and a nice pairing with steamed mussels and clams from the Captain Whidbey Inn kitchen. Consumed on the deck of the Glasswing Cabin.

Drink ‘em if you’ve got ‘em. This has definitely started to fade. Still pleasant enough, but fruit has receded and nothing notable is stepping in to replace what was there.

Blackberry compote on the nose, rich dark fruits flavors, enough acid to offset, light on the tannins and a long juicy finish. Special but not spectacular.

Gorgeous legs in the glass. Complex, balanced. Fruit and tannins drinking at their peak. Perfect second wine following an intense 2009 Sonoma syrah.

Odd, odd, odd. Nefarious does a good job on most of its wines, but this is a real clunker.
