Excellent profile of dark berries with a touch of leather and earth. Very subtle tannins. Only $3.99 at TJs so I’m off to get more. — 2 months ago

An improvement on this thanksgiving tradition. The 2021 was less earthy and more acidic than prior years. More fruit than usual but none particularly discernible. — 7 months ago
