    January 16, 2020 - CT drinking window seriously off on this one. Drinking very well now. Very juicy with bright cherry and black raspberry flavors, almost effervescent energy still apparent. Tannins are tame, especially for Tannat, but wine still has structure. A bit of a lighter weight and short on the finish but still a good wine.

Very concentrated. Dark, very ripe fruit, licorice. Not my favorite style, but a well made and balanced wine, good with sirloin. I'll have a Madiran next time I have aTannat craving, but this was worth the try.

    Quite a dark colour with purple rim. Quite an intense ripe dark fruits, violets on the nose. This follows on the palate, rich, ripe and lot of extract. Very much new world ripeness but not porty or burnt. A bit of heat on the finish and a few harsh notes. An ok wine. 87

The palate has some nice dark blackberry and lots of drying, dark tannins. Served with home made burritos and was a good pairing. Good for its interest and educational value but not really a wine I need to buy again.
