Popped and poured. This is a medium-red wine with ruby notes throughout and mouth-staining capacity in the glass. On the nose, I get sweet red fruit, some light mocha, and a touch of BBQ. In the mouth, the wine is full, expansive, and fleshy. The darker fruit aspects carry through to a largely sweet finish. Overall, this is heady and a bit four-square. I prefer the non-EBA version of this wine. 89 points.

Deep, smooth Rhone blend with long finish of dark chocolate and charred wood. I wonder if I should have given this more air or bottle time as it didn't really sing for me although the quality was apparent.

Short decant, then drank over 2 nights. Going strong. Vibrant big red fruit, mouthcoating texture, and a smooth finish. Pure Paso.
