Rich, spicy nose, solid red fruit, good acid, lots of tannins on the long finish. This wine isn't going anywhere soon, but I don't think its getting any better. Drink up!

Rustic magenta. Cassis, the inside of a just emptied oak barrel, and violet nose. Medium bodied, blueberries, dirty blackberries, sage, completely integrated tannins, smoke, spices, and a long, blue-fruited and dry finish. Didn't start singing until night 2.

Opened a magnum of this tonight. The wine was smooth with just a hint of browning on the edge. The cork (which was pushing out of the bottle slightly into the foil) crumbled so we decanted the bottle. Definitely ready to drink, we enjoyed it with baked salmon for dinner and with some vanilla ice cream and strawberry crostata for dessert.

Holding up well. Decanted about 45 minutes. Smooth well integrated tannins. Nice acidity with decent fruit.

Dense brick color w/heavy tears. Blackberry, plum, white pepper scents. Blackberry continues in the flavors with a coating finish. Drink now.
