June 24, 2020 - Labeled as 13.5% abv. CellarTracker notes say this would be better in 2 to 5 years but is enjoyable now. I am opening the first bottle and will save my second bottle until 2022 or later. This IS enjoyable now. It has dark fruit notes (black cherries) and steeped tea with a long finish. There are some chewy tannins and hints of underlying minerals/iron notes. It is balanced and elegant. I am sorry to finish the final glass on day three but glad I have another bottle waiting in the wings.

So what would you give this for a drinking window then? I have just one bottle and no experience with the wine. Thx! -
