August 9, 2021 - Not my favorite style, but a nice accompaniment to grilled lamb chops with mediterranean spices. Some alcoholic heat mixes plums and figs with a hint of residual sweetness. Nice on the patio!

I was really curious about this wine with some age on it. I always tried it with 2-3 years on it , however, I always thought that it could have aging potential. Well, it does.....soft tannins, menthol/eucalyptus, chocolate, medium body with medium lingering. it did not add a lot of complexity or layering but it definitely evolved to a different wine.
