Dinner with LexTom (Lexington, KY): Very herbal nose, with tobacco, red cherry, a drop of cream, and dusty spice. Angular, high acid palate, rawhide, pomegranate, basic red cherry.

Really surprised at the fuller body and richness of this wine with dark fruits, spicy oak, and leathery earth on the finish. Didn't take formal notes but I have a second bottle so will return to it soon for a full evaluation. Giving it a B/B+ evaluation for now.

Drinking beautifully. Still a few years left, I believe, but probably not many.

Spicy. Big acidity. Some leather and a bit of muted earth. Kind of hot. Needs plenty of decanting. Excellent food wine.

Wine Dinner: Acidic and earthy taste. ... Some oak and fruit but pretty limited scope.
