86 Points

Monday, June 21, 2021 - Method: blind; red wine glass

Look: medium+ garnet; a lot of medium-fast legs

Nose: serrano pepper, blueberry, strawberry, cigar box, forest floor, tobacco

Palate: cherry, sour cherry, graphite, cedar; medium- finish of dried herbs, cedar, leather; dry; medium- body; medium acidity; high- drying tannin

Overall thoughts: Fairly balanced and a bit of nice complexity, but I don't love the flavor and the tannin is higher than I prefer. I did enjoy this, but it certainly didn't impress me.
