Showing better than last time. Crunchy fruit, some cocoa and pepper. Lean, taught and structured.

Was it good? I don't know. Probably pearls before swine. I've wasted my life.

Tart cherry, cranberry, smoke, and cedar box. Smells of dried spicy red peppers at times. Really earthy, stinky, terroir driven, natural Bordeaux from a biodynamic producer. Old school rusticity with powdery tannins and good acidity ito suggest this has another 4-6 years of good drinking in it.

What a fantastic value wine from Bordeaux. Merlot dominated blend with flavors of plum, blackberry, and raspberry coulis, along with mild baking spices and a rich textured finish. This wine just glides across your pallet because the tannins are so well integrated. This wine is a great introduction to Bordeaux.

Had with Xmas Prime Rib. Tannins well integrated. Not very complex but enjoyable and still showing some primary fruit.
