Tuesday, March 10, 2009 - Purple; mocha, sour cherries, animal fat; mocha, chocolate, brambly fruit, creamy, medium body, youthful acidity, soft tannins, lingering finish.
More of an experiment than a wine. A mocha nose with a hint of fat/motor oil/burnt rubber, chocolate flavour and long finish. This will score all over the map, however I didn't dock it for its' unusualness. Ate with saucy ribs but can't say what it really goes with.
