Gave this two hours of air and it opened up nicely. Had a smokey essence, chocolate as well, not real plush, light in body but not off-putting. Really enjoyed this after getting used to it. Feels like it is getting closer to the end, like it may go flat, so recommend drinking sooner than later.

My last bottle of Bressler. Sad to see it go, as we’ve enjoyed a good number of bottles across different vintages and always liked the style. Even had a nice visit with Bob Bressler at his house and backyard vineyard about a decade a go. Good memories.

Dark garnet color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of violets, plums, currants, potpourri and soapstone. Flavors of plums, raspberries, cherries and plums. Medium acidity, medium tannin, full bodied. Drink or hold.

Taste: jammy and smooth. Black berries and blue berries with a nice finish. Light tannins.

Good not great tonight. The ‘12 and ‘14 are both showing better at the moment.
