Dark red. Cooked fruit nose. Medium body with acid and tannic bite, persistent fruit. A lot of wood, almost like a Rioja. Overall, still pretty youthful. Enjoyable.

Holiday Parties 2019 (Dogwood Grove, Arlington, VA): Refined and elegant, offering up a floral nose and notions of black cherry and blackberries on the palate with sophisticated hints of espresso roast and toasty oak. Medium bodied with a lovely texture. Another one that disappeared before any significant development in the glass could occur.

Nice nose, no barnyard. Medium body. Tannins are still fairly gripping, nice fruit, medium finish.

Drinking very nicely, with dark cherry, tobacco, spice and earth flavors, smooth texture.

A good nose of black cherries, cigar and wet forest floor. Medium weight body of red, more than black fruits. Slightly funky tannins on the finish.
