Wednesday, May 30, 2018 - Jailbreak Brewery restaurant opening SQN wine dinner with Justin Bonner (Jailbreak Brewery, Laurel, MD): Ink and licorice dominate so much that the fruit impression becomes an afterthought. Petite Syrah like inkiness, a hint of cherry, cherry liqueur, lavender, lead pencil, baking spices and crushed rock. Exceptional concentration, very finely layered, cool, silky and polished, noticeable but very fine tannins and a long ink and licorice driven finish with a hint of cherry at the end. It is silkier, cooler and inkier than SQN. For my palate, SQN reds are warmer and more opulent. This is a wine on steroid.
