  4th Saturday Brown Bagger (J&L's): Blind. Light color. Aromas of cherry, rhubarb, florals, game and mineral. Complex and inviting. Medium-bodied with flavors of baked cherry, spice and earthy clay with good underlying acidity; balanced. 90-91 pts.

  Started off quite light/watery, muted, or delicate. Steadily improved with additional air, as it filled-in and became more expressive. Red-fruited and slightly funky/earthy. Good acidity -- medium+. Strong decant recommendation for this one. Drink Now and through the next few years.

  -nearly semi-translucent med dark red minimal bricking
  -lifted red cherry raspberry wet stone
  -med+/high acidity, med-/light weight potent sappy tart red cherry with some darker berry influence and an underlying rustic earthy minerality, med/med- tannins are astringent from the acidity
  -lighter style of the producer married with the tart taut acidic red fruitiness of the vintage, probably won't improve from here as the fruit fades further

  Light, red fruited, somewhat bitter finish. Much better with the beef burgundy dish.
