@Jan A, just a question — when you talk about it being better in a Day 3, are you using anything to preserve it (Coravin, etc.?), or just “cork back in the bottle and leave it on the counter”, or ??? Just curious, asking only from a personal calibration standpoint!! Thanks in advance!! 🍷🍷

Hi Doug, I drank a couple of glasses on day one, put the corck back on and put it in the fridge at 4 degrees celcius. Had a dinner party at friends on day two (didn't drink any of this wine) and came back to it on day three. Still standing fierce. Just a softer, opened up version of the youngish wine on day one. Very well made and a very good qpr.

Thanks for the feedback @Jan A -a your method is what I used to do, we rarely have much left over, so I usually don’t worry as much about oxidation in the leftover bottle!! 🤔🤷😂🍷

Delightful brambly fruit and violet aromas are firm but not too grippy on the palate with bell pepper notes and a hint of tobacco spice. This is a perfect example of the varietal. — 11 days ago

Super delicious; a tad on the sweeter side. Strawberry and stone fruit with a lite minerality. Revision: paired with hard boiled quail eggs—brought out a creaminess to the wine. Sooo goood. — 9 months ago
