Herbal notes, licorice and cherry give way to warm spices on the finish. Would recommend decanting for a bit to let the flavors open up.

With our resourcED box from Blue Hill at Stone Barns w/ pheasant. Gave this about an hour of air and served with a very slight chill. Nose: dig a pit at the beach in the sand and a long baby back rib roast and maybe throw some grilled peach in there. Palette is multifaceted, dark chocolate covered cherries. A lil funk, cuz it’s sans sulfur, but not overbearing.

In the beginning of its drinking window, but there is so much more to be found with a few more years of patience. Red currants, currant leafs, tobacco and a hint of green bell pepper. Can’t wait to have it with some development.

Big wine - pretty closed down. I think this vintage needs at least five years.
