Saturday Tasting at The Gourmet Shop Columbia, SC 6/21/2014 (Gourmet Shop Columbia SC): Though not for every one, and not really my favorite, this is a flavorful tasty wine. I get a lot of metallic, sappy, flinty influence to the fruit. This is a 2010 with probably enough bottle time for the fruit beginning to give way to emerging secondary flavors. Deep dark color. Old World style nose with more non fruit than fruit aromas. Metallic, maturing red and dark fruit. Almost full bodied. Integrated. The finish has a wet tree bark flavor with the metallic fruit.
