Great blueberry aroma, a little shallow mid-palate, but a just-right level of tannin supporting the medium-long finish makes it worth the large $9 outlay :)

Nov 30th, 2016Fruit forward on the nose with a hint of smoke. Palate is round with formidable spice. Good for the price!

Nice ruby color. Bright red fruit followed by a little earth and stone. Medium body, subdued tannins, tart finish.

Blueberry kirsch and sweat socks on the nose. Fruity and not very complex, but it was fine in its role as an aperitif...

Really nice black fruit wrapped in dark dry organic earth. Great with raw garlic.
