Brambles, spices...almost reminded me of curry? Gained weight after 30min of air. Fun wine. Drink now.

Love where this is, plenty of muscle without the unnecessary sinew that it had in its youth. Despite the array of fruits, herbs, spices, flowers, and earth this had, its most defining feature to me was the stony imprint it had across the palate. Can’t wait to revisit!

COVID thwarted my French wine vacation, so I turned it to my local liquor store for something fun. This definitely did the trick. We opened it a couple hours before dinner to smell and taste as it developed. Lots of interesting notes in the nose: kalamata olive, tobacco, smoke. Dark earth with a hint of cocoa on the palate. Very fun wine to linger over.
