Another excellent tasting at Januik and some bonus pours of course.
Nice wine tasted at the tasting room. White flowers, sour apple, spice, apricots and stone orchard fruit. Nice acidity and medium finish.

Lighter color. Lots of oak, too much. Wood, spice, dark fruits and dark chocolate and heavy. Needs time.

Cherry, plum, wood, spice, floral and dust. Medium finish. Drink now to 2032.
Cherry, plum, wood, spice, dark chocolate and dust. Dry wine and long term aging potential.
Best of the flight with black currants, oak, vanilla, plum, cigar, mint and floral notes.
Tried a few more wines at the end of the tasting. This is outstanding wine and $85 retail. Cherry, oak, vanilla, plum, spice, floral and dark chocolate. Medium plus finish. One of their best.
Big style features oak, vanilla, spice dark currants, dust and dried flowers. Needs time to fully develop.
