Cool aromas, pepper, clove, dark cherry. Quite sweet & juicy fruit profile, medium bodied, medium tannin, medium - acid. Pleasant enough but lacking complexity and balance.

Popped and poured. This bottle followed a rather stunning Teroldego so this bottle stood very much in its shadow. While the Teroldego was fresh and vibrant, this initially came across quite advanced but I think that had more to do with my palate adjusting to the contrast. Anyway, I settled into this wine after a while and found it to be pretty pleasant overall. Dark cherry and some other red and dark fruits accompanied by a touch of leather and spice. Low-ish tannin and acid but enough to keep things playful. Finish was a touch short. Based off my last several experiences with PJA wine, I think they are seeing a return to form. Drink now.

Dark blackberry-boysenberry with a tannic edge. Give it time to open.
