CT drinking window seriously off on this one. Drinking very well now. Very juicy with bright cherry and black raspberry flavors, almost effervescent energy still apparent. Tannins are tame, especially for Tannat, but wine still has structure. A bit of a lighter weight and short on the finish but still a good wine.

The color is so dark it can almost be called black. Dark fruit on the nose, but also a bit floral. Medium minus acidity, a touch of sweet, quite a bit of tannin. Very concentrated. Dark, very ripe fruit, licorice. Not my favorite style, but a well made and balanced wine, good with sirloin. I'll have a Madiran next time I have aTannat craving, but this was worth the try.

Very dark. Dark berries, some oak, ink and spices on the nose. Juicy, dark berries. Good amonut of tannins. Noticeable alcohol.

Cherry with a hint of blueberry. Good acidity, moderate tannin and oak, medium finish.

Tiefdunkle Farbe und viel von dunklen Früchten. Guter Tropfen zu moderatem Preis. Hat eine angenehme eigene Note, kein Mainstream.
