Purchase on Berserker Day. Tried out my new Coravin. This is a really interesting wine that is not a crowd-pleaser. This is for wine nerdy and for all the right reasons. 12.8% alcohol built to last this is multi-dimensional with lots of herbal, soy, olive, and a dark brooding nature. great food wine Can't wait to revisit. Old world flavors in a new world wine.

This is a crowd pleaser. Not complex just delicious popped and decanted and this overall was very good. But I would recommend cellaring for 3 - 5 more years for something more complex. this is not over oaked this is american grenache with likely something else... but a good wine to serve with meat - lamb, goat, roasted or grilled chicken, pork and maybe a filet.
