Wednesday, March 20, 2013 - It pours out a brick reddish blood-orangy kind of color and immediately smells of a kind of sweet funk. It's like herbs and wet leaves mixed with the sweet red fruits that come through mostly in the form of bright fresh cherries. A very enjoyable characteristic; the funk fades into a meatiness, and is followed by dirt, coffee, cedar, and currant.

The palate shows cola, pink starburst/red sweet tart, mineral/dust, orange zest, cherries, kiwi, and an almost agave like eucalyptusy/mintyness. Drinking the wine with steak and rice shows blackberry and pepper as dominant. A 15+ sec finish lingers and has a little bit of everything, and I have to say: this wine is the epitome of complexity in my limited experience. Every time you address the glass you can get something different both aromatically, and viscerally. I've tried to just put down every little thing I experienced, and I feel like I missed describing so much. This wine is oh so very good.
