Time has helped, I think. Last bottle was 19 months ago. Keeps well for many days. Strong work, Rick.
I see this lasting much longer than the bogus Drinkability rating gives it. Very nice nose, legs, FRUIT, et al.
Quite good bottle of wine. Pungent and fruity riparian zone nose followed by rich cassis and black pepper palate. Highly recommend.
Home run on this wine. Well done basalt. Ready now. Wonderful fruity balanced blend.
