Wednesday, December 30, 2020 - 12/31/20. Much better 2nd day wine. Much.

Still youthful and a large wine, but more together, darker fruit, velvety tannins and texture, there is still an abundance of alcohol, but it comes together better on palate. Aside from fruit, getting black licorice, herbal qualities on palate, Italian spice and dill (dry). Dark cherry, black fruits more pronounced. Deep ripe fruit flavors with nice mix of herbal. It needs air at this stage.

————————————

Appearance - medium plus ruby. Clear.

Nose - it’s been open for a couple hours and am pouring through a vinturio. Clean, youthful, alcohol eye burn medium plus. Alcohol has become more prominent with air. Red and black fruits. Very primary fruits the alcohol sting can be a bit overpowering. Some spice basil, bay leaves, dill, and clearly the cinnamon.

Palate - medium plus intensity, you get fruit (fresh, ripe,black and red berry fruit) then burst of acidity, hello, wake you up, berries and some menthol, alcohol is high. Listed at 14.6. You feel it. On finish, which is a POW and then it dies quickly, you oick up the cedar.

It’s too young to drink at the moment. Feels disjointed with lots of potential coming from Different angles but right now each are in competition. With time it will work together.
