Very black opaque color (barely garnet), nose INTENSE black ripe plum as if baked in sun, palate dry, acid med+ and lifted, tannin med+ and tamed, body full alcohols seems 15 and actually is 15, finish is a braided black licorice and melk chocolate thing ...
... compared this with mollydooker two left feet (shriaz and merlot and boredeaux) and the two left feet could almost be a dessert wine

Black fruit and leathery tannins with a hint of black pepper....not too ripe despite its 15% alcohol! Surprisingly well balanced...seems to have some potential for a bit of aging...

小伙伴带来的盲品酒,闻香有brett的动物皮毛味,植物气息,可能有带梗,话梅一类香气,充分陈年后橡木桶融合的香料味,入口酸度中高,酒液咸,单宁紧致,颗粒细腻,石墨,话梅,植物气息,漂亮的香料味,余味是话梅味和木质香气,收尾苦感比较明显。

Great blackberry hints, heavy and smooth, in its prime now! Great after sitting for 1 hour.
