Thursday, October 15, 2015 - I get a note of paint on the nose, and I'm thinking VA. Ryan says that when he opened this five or so hours ago, the nose was all beef stock, but not now. Palate shows red fruit and dried spice box, is rather savory on the finish. This is really charming, the palate is great, but for that note of VA on the nose.
