Wow, this is great for the price! Deep ruby color. Vibrant nose of red plums and cherries, along with warm clay, mesquite, some anise and violet petals. Smooth tannins but well-structured, lively acidity, and juicy black cherry and plum fruit. Complex notes of mesquite, tar, anise, pepper, eucalyptus -- there are times when this reminds me of a nice Right Bank blend. Lots of personality, and I imagine in a few years this will be even spicier and more interesting.

Fruit forward with black cherry and plum ballanced by firm acidity and velvety firm merlot tannin structure that only Columbia Valley seems to be able to do. Chocolate and black pepper. A bit too jammy to be great, but a pleasant approachable sippper

Smager super godt også 3 dage efter åbning. Dejlig eftersmag - noter af marcipan
