  So I bought a cellar; 11/12/2022-12/31/2030: This wine is showing really well right now. I poured a glass for my wife and said guess how old - she thought it was a 2015 or 2016. Which is exactly where I would have pegged it. I can’t believe how fresh it is. No bricking at all, nose of bright red fruits and fairly transparent in the glass. Flavors of sweet cranberry, pomegranate, raspberry, with a slightly Smokey finish. Another winery I had never heard of, but still exists. This wine - Moniment - is a blend of their top barrels, and the label says their highest quality release. It certainly beat all of my expectations.

  Raspberry, strawberry and pomegranate, with lots of sweet fruit but not much complexity on the finish. A little better with the duck cassoulet. Drink now
