Monday, January 2, 2006 - Drank over two nights. First opened for New Years Blind Tasting. Probably my WOTN although it showed surprising simplicity for a wine of that price ($65 retail, $35 sale). Once reopened the following night after refrigeration, I was hit immediately with blueberry pie with baker's spices on the nose followed by currants, eucalyptus and mint. It was allowed to warm to room temperature and decant for a couple hours, after which time, the same smells were prevalent but more pungent. Upon first sip, it tasted like a blueberry/strawberry pie with cinnamon and nutmeg. After another hour or so, flavors of grilled bell pepper with Indian spices started to prevail. Overall a quite enjoyable wine, that took me on a ride of flavors ;)
