Rich blue and black fruit that still taste fresh. Sage - lavender notes mid pallet along with a beef broth and hints of floral. What really stands out is the play between the tannins and acidity. Tannins are pillowy and the acidity holds everything together, and builds on the finish that lingers for minutes.

Took about 1 hr to come alive, so give it time open, or in the cellar.

Medium-dark color, light bodied wine that seems similar to a nice chianti classico. The acidity is the strongest component, yet not over powering and crying for food. Red fruit with floral notes and a bit of cedar and spice. Short finish, which is it's biggest detractor. Great now, may improve.

This is really coming into shape now, with a wonderful balance. Good blue and red fruit presence throughout with pleasing acidity and mouthfeel. Medium length finish..
