Notes from day 2. Dark purple to black in color. Nose of blueberry/blackberry, ash seared game, black pepper with a little oak showing through on the tail end. Palate of blueberry, ash, little olive, black pepper on tail end with some oak showing. The finish is average in length and this is a little less complex than I recall. Still a really good qpr at 18$ or so. Drink or hold. 50+5+10+16+7

Some gaminess on the nose along with earth. Cola and tobacco flavors. Reminded me of an overripe Sonoma Coast Pinot in a way.

Dark cherries, earth, blackberry, coffee, vanilla, tobacco and spice. Tannins okay, but maybe acids are still too high at this point.
