Drank this in honor of Dean Derby who passed away Friday morning, October 29, 2021. He started a fantastic winery that produces some amazing wine and this one is no exception.
Drinking great now, I wouldn’t leave it much longer.

This seems lacking in both tannin and acid. No bite left. Not really my style. These IMHO are not built to age very long even with proper storage. Drink sooner rather than later.

Rose petals, anise seed, and blueberry jam on the nose, dark fruits, vanilla, and allspice on the palate. Firm tannins, a bit of chocolate comes through on the finish. Drinking nicely now, but probably has peaked - will hold thru 2021
