  My main wine selection for my mom’s birthday dinner at MesaMar Coral Gables. Opened at 4pm and started drinking around 5:30 until 7pm.
  
  The nose is delicate and inviting, full body, tons of tannin and acidity but everything well integrated, nothing is out of place here. The oak and dark fruits come along with a touch of dark chocolate, leather and tobacco. Great lingering finish.
  
  Drink or hold.

  Very good with just a short decant. No rush with this wine, it will keep on drinking great for at least 10 more years.

  Third (and final) tasting. This bottle was completely different, the bottles I tasted previously were fruit bombs, more like Plumpjack or Caymus Special Selection. This one had much stronger aromatics, shades of menthol or eucalyptus. Still quite enjoyable.

  Blackberry, black cherry, and dark plum fruit. Notes of tobacco, dark chocolate, espresso, spice and toasty oak. Wonderful structure to this wine that still has some silky supple tannins and wonderful long finish.
