Deep fruit, leather and sweetness on the nose. Chewy, tannins, boisenberry and ripe, sweet fruit.

Black cherry liqueur and bits of white pepper. Hot. A hugely extracted wine but worked well tonight with our variation of Hoppin' John. Fun in the moment.

Very dark and dense color, much higher quality fruit than Juan Gil, hints of damp earth and graphite reminiscent of right bank Bordeaux. Tastes complete and united at this point in time, very modern and polished but not superficial. Has a sense of purpose and direction not common in a large scale commercial wine and the blunt style is infinitely preferable to overly fussy winemaking.

Initially very smooth on the front-end and bitter on the back-end. Aeration distributed the taste to be delivered more consistently throughout. Overall, could take it or leave it. Paired well with a garlic cheddar cheese.

7月25日凌晨喝。紫色水果,紫罗兰花香,一点点鲜味。搭配西班牙火腿和奶酪,很好喝。而且一起喝的人很对
