Purplish red hue. Excellent aromatics. Blue/blackberry pie, good spices, leather, tobacco, eucalyptus. Medium plus body, silky smooth tannins. Blueberry, cloves, underbrush, dirty black raspberry. Finishes with a nice punch of spice. Excellent. Easy drinking yet complex enough.

This bottle was the best of this wine I have had. Nice mellow flavors of Earth, tobacco and red berries in a clean dry mouth. Finish was a touch of wood and light dry tannin.

Pale purple in the glass with some blue tint. Ripe red cherry and plum, crushed rock and leather. Light body with nice acidity, faint sense of alcohol. Tart cherry, raspberry, and plum up front. Complimented by black tea and leather. Brief, but savory finish with notes of dried herbs.

Juicy red fruit with minty herbs in the background. Medium body with medium plus acidity and a long finish.

Leather, berry and dust aroma. Nicely balanced berry flavors with mouth-puckering dryness. A very solid Rhone red from Bonny Doon.

Some More Wine with Meals in Burgundy and Northern Rhone; 4/9/2019-4/17/2019 (France): Red cherry and berry aromas and flavors with a bit of leather and sweet spice in a nicely balanced combination. A very pleasant surprise on United.
