This wine started out disjointed and tannic. Acid, tannin (cigar tobacco) and under ripe puckering fresh fruit were all fighting for dominance. I actually could finish my glass and chalked it up to a tough vintage that didn’t age well. Day 2, totally different story. Fruit turned juicy and the acid and tannins were complimentary. Really a nice wine that surprised me on how well it came together. A little dried fruit on day two but real signs of age.

Another year in it. Good. Better. Has a finish. A little more layers. Still fruit. Some acid. Matches well with food. Winner
