Day 1 - too woody. Day 2.- delicious balance of red fruit, boysenberry and spice/wood. Impressive.

This extremely dark wine is indigo in color. The nose features black fruit aromas, like blackberry, fig and plum. There are a ton of spices at work here, too, but in a very subtle way. Cinnamon, allspice, thyme and sage notes appear. The palate has some very firm tannins at work, while the black fruit shows itself again. The dark flavors align with the smells on the nose. This wine is a perfect mate for a juicy rib eye steak, or a nice pork chop hot off the grill.

Deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, espresso, cedar and sweet notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry, strawberry and ripe black cherry with notes of cacao, vanilla and dried herbs. Fine rich tannins, long finish ending with fruit, cacao, spice and earthy, oaky mineral notes. Nice!

Blueberries, cassis, and a floral bouquet. A bit of tobacco on the finish. , Nicely balanced but noticeable tannins. Full bodied and 45 sec finish.

Great wine for those that aren't typical cab drinkers. Paired with hamburgers, would love this with BBQ, lamb. Approachable tannins, high acid, dark fruit, coffee and chocolate. Can't wait to have it again 👍❤️🍷
