nose spectacular with fat, smoked meats, pyrazines, and blood orange. medium bodied, fresh, and smooth. dark berry flavors and a fine tannin on the back, feels like burgundy in the mouth. long finish, evolves sip to sip. has improved with the years and will fo on for many more.

these louis a wines are on point! meat and pepper nose. silky smooth, medium bodied, freshly acidic. juicy blackberry flavor goes more savory by the second day showing soy and licorice. mild fine tannin on the back end with a very long finish. unique, energetic, refreshing, uber drinkable but with plenty of depth and complexity to contemplate. will age. gotta start hoarding these.

Wow...smoky, tart blackberry juice. Feral but clean...this is absolutely delicious and reminds me of a good Collioure. A lot of wines try to toe this line but often end up skunky and bacterial. Very impressive and has the tannins to age.

dark crimson color. meat, dehydrated red fruits, gray stone, and pepper on the nose. light to medium body and acidic. palate is pleasantly green with a very mild strawberry profile and a lightly tannic, medium finish.
second day improved- acid burned off a bit and adopted a burgundian savory character.
third day- man this is really going to age well. nose took on some sawdust and truffles. fruits muted and tannin barely hanging. really smooth going down.
