Weekend in CT

  bdx nose with cassis and plum dominating. ripe black fruit, savory and chewy mid. great minerality through a ripe, black fruit dominated, body. long finish with a bit of a tannic grip. Young but drinking very well. delicious with steaks.

  sweet ripe fruit on the nose, some chocolate. plum. Mid is light with red fruit and herbs dominating. finish shows some oak which needs to integrate. delicious but very young. cant wait to put a few away and try in 2-3 years.

  Portugal, Douro, Porto

  drank over 2 days. Needs time - best sip was the last sip of the second night. one the first day the alc showed and there was a hint of amarone but by the second night this was true port with ripe black plum dominating, sweet smoky vanilla-bean notes, mid is ripe but a good balance of sweet and savory notes. looooong sweet plum and chocolate finish. delicious and young !
