Took a while for this wine to open up and for me to adjust to just how dense and powerful it is. Prunes and dirt and tannin,lots of tannin.

Oh hey, Heart of Darkness. I do so love your soulful/scary intensity, your dark #Tannat heart and surprising levity from half-tank maturation. Could it be that - with just a little help from some fatty country pate - we could live happily ever after?? #pondering #glasshalffull
