Friday, August 19, 2016 - This wine threw a LOT of sediment.
Bricking now. While I thought it was really nice, I think this bottle might be a little bit over the hill. I *think* it's a tad bit oxidative. It smells really great - tobacco and smoke. There is a little bit of red berry fruit. The acidity is quite robust. We had this with pasta and pesto sauce (a strange pairing but it kind of worked, I might even say well....). It has a long pleasant tangy finish. There might be just a little bit of a cough drop kind of effect to it.
This is my last bottle, but if I had more I'd go ahead and drink them.
