  4/3/2020 - Ed in Inverness Likes this wine:

  Lovely nose of rose, cherry, rhubarb. Plum, iron, soft tannins, leather with a touch of anise. Good acid. Dry finish. Notes taken about an hour after opening the bottle, so I think decanting would help if serving for dinner. I would drink soon due to the dry finish. Overall a B+.

  Stunning nose of cut rose petals, strawberry, cherry and hints of spices. Tart bone dry palate, good balance leaning towards acid. A good wine.

  Dinner with the wine group (Hillside Supper Club): Light ruby; red roses, red bell pepper, aromatic; palate is light bodied, high tannin, still very youthful, red fruit, high acid; finish is medium length. Good, not great. 88
