Opened 15 minutes before dinner: served at slightly above cellar temperature: bright, blueberry nose; dark fruit and acidic on the palate; long, peppery finish; paired nicely with grilled Greek style chicken kabobs, seasoned with garlic and oregano; plated on a bed of lemon jasmine rice.

Popped and poured making dinner. Notes of blueberry, red fruit and a slight note of smoke on the nose. On the palate, good acidity with a "bite" at the back of the mouth. Paired well with baked chicken, garlic mashed potatoes and a green salad.

Pop and pour and tasted with food (jambalaya with chicken, shrimp and chorizo, in case you were wondering). Then tasted without food. Followed for about 3 hours total. Recorked, refrigerated and will taste again. Nice ruby red color. Nose has some strawberry elements along with cherries and an earthy side. Good acidity along with the ripe red fruit. Light in texture. The acidity keeps this a bit lively and mouthwatering. Very good.
