Friday, October 26, 2018 - To the nose, black more than red fruit, slight pepper, slight oak, some earth; also floral but cannot identify it, almost mint-like. On the palate, this is lively with some minerality and acidity. Black cherry, black raspberry and blackberry more than red cherry, red raspberry and plum. White pepper edging black pepper, plus a mix of other spices. Tannins in threads and in the background now. Medium-to-thin side, and short to medium length. The liveliness is interesting - one described it as a fizz in the second half of length while I thought it was throughout - due to minerality (or licorrella)? Went very well with chili (turkey and white beans). Similar but different; we all like it, and will look for more!
