Really in your face at first—give it at least an hour in the glass or decanter. Settled down to a nicely balanced blend, on the heavier, darker side courtesy of the Syrah. A bit gamey, a bit fruity

I’m not usually a fan of Zins, but this was nice. Harsh at first, but a pour through and aerator and an hour in the decanter softened it up nicely. Notes of blackberry, smoky leather, and highly tannic.

Fantastic as always—one of my absolute favorite pinots. Spiced cherries with a hint of sour note, woody moss, and some smoky spices to round it out. Can’t get enough of this one.
