A well made wine, but it didn't ring true with me. A subtle bitter flavor came out and didn't work for me. I think this needs the right meal, or a couple of years to smooth out.

Still early for this wine. At first sip, heat dominates the nose and palate. After 1 hr, it opens up a bit, with moderate blueberry and cherry fruit, but still firm tannins. Overall, the style seems quite restrained, but may yield a nice complexity with 2-3 years of bottle age.
