  Some funk on the nose (and on day 2, some VA). The mouth gives as sweet, tart, savory mix. Interesting and natty, if not perfect. Pretty fruity. 90pts. I will finish the bottle but I don't need more. $17G.

  A lot of fruit, nice acidity. Easy to drink and a great QPR.

  It’s good. Although my palate sucks and it was just tainted by a delicious dinner of chicken spinach and peppers in a harissa-sriracha-Chardonnay cream sauce over pasta. However the 2021 If/Then red blend is nice. It’s soft on the palate, kinda smooth and silky, with a little bit of bite at the end.
  
  I’ll give you a sip stream of consciousness review for my second pour, a half glass because I need to drive soon.
  
  My first swig was large and meaningful. It was easy on the mouth. A lot seams to happen a little bit after swallowing. All of it good but it drys out the mouth and makes me want another sip.
  
  There doesn’t seem to be a lot up front except good solid red grape flavor. Not too sweet though. There’s a lot after that fades. Like I said, I don’t have a distinctive palate, I can recognize the flavors but I really can’t name them.
  
  Couple more sips. All good. Overall a nice pleasant wine.

  Boysenberry, black raspberry, black and red cherry, plum, herbs, African violet, and earth on the nose. Plum, tart cherry, red cherry, herbs, earth, spice, a hint of new leather and graphite on the palate. Tangy, juicy, mouthwatering acidity, lightly grippy tannins, medium long finish. Delicious. There's lots of acidity, which keeps this lively, but people who don't like acidity might want to look elsewhere. Very fun, fruity, and easy to drink, yet there's plenty of stuffing. And 12.9% so you can guzzle it.
