Thursday, February 23, 2012 - My second bottle. Drank my last bottle with toke_man and would have to agree...something was just not here.

Decanted for 30 minutes this time around and didn't mix with other wines. I have to say this time around I'm impressed. More inline with a California Pinot. Black cherry, vanilla, smoke, and sweet spices on the nose.

Palate delivered a nice cherry blush, the smallest hint of plum, and earth notes I can't quite put a finger on. Almost a sweet tobacco, but not. Crisp acids and decent body lend a firm and bold mouth feel. Not precisely smooth, not quite velvety, just...invigorating.
