94 Points

Friday, December 4, 2020 - My red WOTY! Elegant. Wonderfully balanced with mint and spice on the nose, fruit earth spice & minerals on the palate. A long (and did I mention balanced?) finish. This wine was effortless to drink and paired nicely with the roasted Cornish Game Hens and maple glazed Acorn squash. Really really nice.

At this point its at peak and holding it nicely. As other reviewers have noted - it needs to be open at least 30 minutes before it settles down into wonderfulness.

No longer a block busting bruiser, just a very classy lady.
