Strawberry fruit on the nose, with a whiff of menthol and leather. The palate shows similar notes, with good acidity. I’m not sure this has the stuffing to age too long, but it’s not a huge hurry (maybe 3 years?). Great with carne asada and spicy garlic salsa.

Excellent and especially so with an hour of air. Not terribly intriguing but drinking well now with moderate complexity and a delicious mid-length finish.
Split between 5 people; I had a glass.

I frankly have no idea how much (if at all) this will improve with time in the cellar. Right now, this is a beautiful and versatile wine with or without food. Quality grapes from low yield vineyards. Bought several cases and do not regret. I have a hard time finding a better wine for $17.

Too young. Lay it down and wait.
