From 375 Clear garnet with some definite funk This particular bottle was rather rustic and needed a good hour in the glass to calm down. Tasty and interesting enough, but some bottle variation

Bought this on the advice of salesperson at 67 Wine. It’s delicious! I am glad I kept it chilled before opening. While I can almost taste the stewed fruit the cooler temp kept that at bay. The fruit element and tannins are in balance though the finish is indeed a bit dry. I didn’t mind though. If this is modern then bring it on!

Girardin always veers toward modern but this goes over the line. Oak is assertive and out of proportion to heft. Ripe but also veering to stewed more than fresh.
