Crimson on the pour. Cherry, sassafras, and forest floor on the nose. Bright Cherry and smoke with a touch of leather on the palate. Lively acidity. Medium + tannins.

The biggest ding against this wine is that it lacks acidity. Pleasant fruitiness and earthiness aren't balanced with palate freshening acidity, and the wine feels slightly off-kilter as a result. Its imminently drinkable, but could be better

Pale ruby with definite clearing at the edges. Nose gives off candied cherry, strawberries, baking spice, earth, and a hint of animal. Very aromatic. Palate confirms nose. Well-structured with fine medium(-) tannins and high acidity. Food friendly. Slightly disappointing lack of complexity and length on the finish.

Medium ruby color turning transparent at the rim with a reflective edge. The nose gives off ripe red fruits amongst smoky herbal and earthy scents. The palate is medium-bodied with a silky texture and a vibrant acidity that forms the backbone and perfectly balances the ripe dark cherry, cranberry and red licorice core. Secondary flavors of incense and menthol but still lifted by such lively acidy all the way to the long, mineral-filled finish. This is complete, savory and easily enjoyable. Drink now until 2030.

This was in decent spot, showing some tertiary and in a balanced manner. Drink in the next 2/3 years
