Community Tasting Note

SchlaepDog Likes this wine:

Friday, January 15, 2021 - Dark purple, but not bright like a typical bojo

Nose has pronounced and lovely cherry/ wild blackberry pie aromas along with sweet spices and flowers.

In the mouth it is medium to full bodies and opens with lush smoky black cherry fruit that jumps quickly in the mouth to red raspberry as the vibrant acidity kick into gear. There is obvious oak applied to this wine and it finishes creamy and long, with lingering ripe red cherry nicely presented.

Overall, a solid modern style wine, quite delicious and easy to drink. However, it is lacking terrior and sense of place. Blind, I would have guess a modern style Italian Barbera. I like Barbera, so I like this wine, it just doesn't seem like a BoJo.

I have another bottle, I will hold for a couple more years at least, it seems to be just entering the prime drinking window. No sign of fading. Drink 2021- 2031.
