Friday, September 11, 2009 - I have to admit, this wine was delicious. I generally like wines in a more "traditional" style - less ripe, more acidity, tannin and earth. This wine is not that. It is ultra-ripe, with barely enough acidity to keep it from collapsing into a cloying sweet mess. The tannin is very mellow. While I would not describe the wine as complex or multi-layered, it has a fantastic richness and concentration that makes it a pure pleasure to drink. Sometimes, a simple, but incredibly buxom, dinner companion can be very satisfying.
