Deep slightly turbid ruby, one hour decant; tart strawberry and raspberry picking up subtle underbrush notes and then evolving towards a spicy medium tannic finish. Acidity pretty stout. Did not enjoy as much on second day where some green notes appeared. Needs only a little air up front.

Deep ruby; inviting nose of earth, red fruits and herbs; lifted palate of cherry, raspberries, and earth evolving into spicy tannins layered above by perfumed flowers and herbs. Smooth mouthfeel, moderate acid and good length with trailing hints of currants. Paired very well with pan roasted boneless pork loin chops. Pretty good in a down year
