Summer and Fall 2022 Wine Adventures (Corolla, NC & Three Rivers, MI & Dogwood Grove, VA): Perhaps I've overrated it out of nostalgia for trips to the BBR shop in St. James, but this wine showed a lot of class and pedigree and represented a classic vintage well. Showed a saturated full-bodied richness on the palate and tastes/aromas of crème de cassis, graphite, and floral elements.

It is a little closed this time, the nose with a hint of dark berry fruits! But the acidity on the palate is very refreshing here, perfectly judged! Still very dark in colour and very youthful, perhaps it is taking a nap, wish it will come back in a more glorious fashion!

Black currant fruits dominate the nose and the palate, still a little tight have to say! It still needs time to evolve!

Enjoying every drop of it! Still youthful of course but I think it is ready to go! Drink it over the next 5 years! Well made!
