Thursday, November 3, 2022 - 2022 Excellent Burgundy Adventure; 10/31/2022-11/6/2022 (Burgundy): Barrel Tasting - Incredible pure yet intense nose displaying perfectly ripe black fruit with a hint of red, blackberry, blackberry concentrated, a hint of licorice, lavender, spicy spices and crushed rocks. Exceptional concentration, beautifully layered pure black fruit, rich yet refined and weightless, perfect amount of acidity and mineral, and a seamless long silky black fruit floral finish. Excellent showing.
