We had two bottles with Christmas Eve dinner. I had the wine with lamb and my wife had it with tenderloin and it worked well with both dishes. The Somm decanted the wine, which really let it open up. Tannins were smooth. The wine looks brick colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like sandalwood and acacia. It tastes like tobacco, eucalyptus, cranberry and blackberry. The body is medium/full. The wine has polished texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

Another one of those hazy winery visits: softish tannins, cassis, pretty nicely resolved. Make sense of that.
