Surprisingly amount of fresh fruit in this mature bottle. Blackberries and raspberries, fresh leather, dust, thyme, touch of resinous underbrush. Moderate acids, Soft, well-integrated tannins.

Juicy ripe plum, roses, and vanilla oak plus a certain earthiness. Very full, seductive flavors - like blackberry pie. A little lacking in structure, so will drink best young and the finish was a little more on the sour cherry tip than I expected.

(Acorn Alegrķa Vineyards Russian River Valley Medley Red Blend) #6; VaynerPAZZZ; COLOR-dark; NOSE-big ripe fruit; almost Zinfandel or Syrah like; PALATE-not bad; big red fruit; very Bordeaux-like; a little thinner; a little tobacco leaf that I like, but lacks depth and doesn't have that wow factor; it's just OK; solid; GV-87
