Heavy hitter. Powerful body with dark fruit and excellent balance between acidity, tannin and alcohol. A somewhat odd nose of popcorn persisted but the palate was less impacted by this. Ready now but should also continue to evolve for a few more years. Very nice!

Black cherry, ripe raspberry, virginia ham, red apple skin, anise, clove, cinnamon, vanilla, rich velvety texture, great purity and balance. Drinks well now as a new world bomb, but should improve in a couple years to let some of the fine grain tannins resolve.

Another poker night wine, full-bodied, heavy hitter, but somehow the alcohol is in check.
