July 3, 2017 - Beautiful deep red-purple color. Spice notes with leather and anise, bit confusing in the mouth when first tried after opening, not much flavor. Will have to see how it improves over the next day of aeration.
UPDATE: Well, this wine benefits greatly with some air. It tastes much better the next day! Blueberry and pomegranate, with earthy leather and mushrom. Definitely worth the wait... Open, wait, wait, then enjoy. -

May 5, 2016 - Very interesting, first experience with bonarda. First impression is very savory. Truffles and leather. Opened up with some air with some blueberry notes and tobacco. Long, mineral, almost salty finish.
