Needed about 2 hours to really get going. The nose is packed with subtle red berries, blood orange, plums, stem spice, leather, musk and sweet dirt, if that exists...
Fantastic palate, medium+ bodied with great concentration and fine, dusty tannins towards the super long finish, driven by orange zest and stems.

La Paulee NY. Not very expressive on the nose, stems and shy black fruits appear after coaxing. Meaty, earthy and dense GC, typical CDR active limestone on full display on the chalky inflected finish, but not uber long. This wine is just too young. On the whole line up, I must say that I was expecting much more, the prices doubled in the last 24 months, but the question is, has the quality doubled ?

This came across as very black fruited, not as energetic as I experienced last time around.
A bit of coffee on the palate alongside orange. Very serious and somewhat flat fruit..
NR

Off-Track Leroy BYO (Manhatta): Stunningly open, so perfumed, elegant, meaty, purple fruit, vanilla, lifted with substance. 94+
