takes time to open. Lots of dark fruit led by blueberry and black raspberry. Lots of earth, iron and tobacco notes. Grippy tannin. Good for another couple of years at least.

Delicious. Deep red, good legs and dense mouthfeel. There was a bit of an off-flavor just after pouring that lost it a point or two; that blew off almost immediately and with an intensely flavorful soy-marinated flap steak this was close to perfect. There is moderate sediment already. Mature, but no rush to drink.

Wow so much to enjoy here, ate with homemade pizza. The wine looks inky colored. The legs are fast. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, mineral, stoniness, plum and cherry. It tastes like blueberry, prune, fig and stoniness. The body is full. The wine has satin-like texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

We loved this with grilled chicken, husky\spicy rub. The wine is very dark red with plump legs. Rich, full entry with a nicely integrated tannic mouthfeel and full flavor of ripe plums. It develops nicely in the mouth and has a long, full, spicy finish.
