  See previous notes. Too ripe. Hopefully it’ll mellow out and find balance with time.

  Medium plus intensity on the nose. Ripe black fruit, cassis, slate and sweet spice. Medium acidity and mellowed tannins. The 15% alcohol under check. Good finish. Paired with Mediterranean kebab dishes. Will hold other bottle for additional complexity.

  Opened in the bottle for a few hours. Significantly less density than the VV and also seemingly more new oak. Still it’s good for the $40-60 range. Coconut, anise, milk chocolate and some vegetal funk. Medium bodied but plush give the Mourvèdre (40%). Probably best in a few years.

  NIce bright Ruby color. 15%abv Slight band aid smell on the nose. But just opened. Darker fruit and spice on the palate Tannins and alcohol balanced well. Long finish. Very nice wine. Goes great with an afternoon watching the Breeders Cup!

  Blend between Grenache and mouderve. Age in barren 18 months. Pronounced nose with cassis, fig, prune, spices, vanilla, coffee. Medium+ acidity and medium+ tannin. Tannin velvety.
