Monday, March 30, 2015 - Surprised this wine made it to day two, but here it is. Black fruit aromas out front followed by strong jalepeno pepper and milder black pepper notes. The pepper is more subtle on the palate, but still spicy and with roughly the same jalepeno/black split. The spiciness is more consistent through the palate, and it's balanced by some blackberry flavor and mild tannins. The finish is not aggressive, but it's background spiciness lingers.
The green pepper I mentioned in a prior note was not present today, although I can't say for certain that it also wasn't there yesterday.
