1st wine of the new year and had to open something fun. Of course, enjoyed with its classic pairing of chicken wings π
1.5 hour decant(minimal fine/cloudy sediment). A stunning dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: brambly red berries, herbaceous, wet forest floor, graphite, floral. Taste: silky, soft, juicy, layered beautiful mouthfeel wine with red plum, dark chocolate, dried herbs, touch of spice and a cedar espresso captivating long finish. YUM! β 4 months ago
One of my favorite Bourbons. Eagle Rare 10y coming out of Buffalo Trace. Grab it when you see it.

Had this one on the shelf for a while.
Classic Cali Cab. Big, earthy, sharp tannins that time has maybe softened just a touch..
Once upon a time this was my jamβ¦. β 4 months ago

I had bought this wine for my wife who likes robust wines οΏΌ - what a pleasant surprise in addition to its body. It had complex bursting flavors. Consistently flavourful from the first taste on my lips to the Gargle and aftertaste. I matched it with sirloin steak from an elk and some mushrooms with garlic, and the universe was as it should be. οΏΌ β 2 months ago

Deep purple color. Beautiful aromas of red and purple fruits, leather, dried herbs and spice. Layered with complexity, pencil lead and cigar box finish. Insanely good, glad I got to partake.
