Sunday, January 28, 2018 - Color: Medium Garnet with bricking
Nose: Mushrooms! with herbs, earth, a little funky
Palete: Soft acidity, dried red fruit (raspberry, strawberry), a bit of mushroom earthiness
Body: Lithe, more like a Burgundy than a Rhone, not shy but graceful
Finish: Long, lingering, dried red berry fruit, soft tannins, lingering hint of cinnamon
This is long past its lush, sensuous time, and yet a very pleasant wine, like a "Grand Dame" with elegance, poise and character.
