  Cracking the whip; 10/16/2023-10/23/2023 (Eagan, MN): N: Fresh dark red fruits, dark red floral notes, bright minerals and deep earth. So aromatic on the nose.
  
  P: A gripping fist of intense, dark red fruits, almost black to the core, with a dry mineral note that leads into the finish. Great upfront entry but surprisingly quite short on the finish. Enjoyed the nose much better than the palate.

  Wine-a-palooza (Jason's house): Pop and pour from magnum, but I had my glass about 45 minutes after it was opened. Surprisingly soft for an Abreu vineyard. This is just a crowd-pleasing red that is pleasurable and tasty.

  Wine Palooza (Eagan, MN): Good but nothing off the charts. Blueberries, spice, minerals, earth and tobacco notes. Medium finish. Drink now.

  Lovely wine, with dark fruit, and tobacco and oak on the nose

  Just fine, but not worth the price (at 150$ it's unreasonable). Good structure, dark fruit, and tobacco/oak on the nose. I'm not sure this will improve anymore with age, but it also did not seem to be coming apart.
