This has now come into its own. Drinking so well now.
This screams Washington bourdeaux blend.
Robust fruit yet full bodied. Black and purple fruit, spice, -

April 21, 2020 - Double decant. Just a tiny bit of wet newspaper on the nose with the gorgeous red fruit and alcohol burn. No TCA here just that tiny hint. This wine is fruit forward, full bodied and well structured. Ripe blackBerry and strawberry with a kiss of vanilla. Great finish. Tasty stuff.

January 29, 2020 - Perfect drinking window now. Well balanced. Medium plus body. Only criticism would be a tad too sweet. Drink up.
