  A deep, robust, and complex wine. Glad I didn’t open it any earlier. Maybe hold a bit longer if you can, but it’s lovely now with a good few hours decant.

  Deep, delicious, needs hearty meat to pair with the tannins...so smooth

  Interesting wine, dark color, lots of tannin, good fruit with complex flavors, full bodied, but the wine doesn’t drink easily, it gets a bit tiring, drank with chicken couscous, 14.0%abv, on to the next vintage.

  Tannat yields a sturdy and robust red wine that pairs beautifully with meat and fatty dishes. On opening this bottle was not very subtle with hidden facets or dimensions but it was flavorful, bright, and to be honest it overpowered even the lean BBQ ribs we had.
  
  24 hours of air made a difference and moderated the wine in an appealing way. The tannins softened, the earthy, smokey suggestiveness of the day before diminished and gave way to black cherry fruit, dried roses, and subtler notes of bay/rosemary/juniper. Will give the next bottle another 18 months or so. 88-91
