I tried many bourbon barrel aged wines and consistently I am not a fan, haven’t found one I liked. To me it masks the fruit, makes the barrel take over.

Mar 22nd, 2021Super duper dark and legs for days. Opaque, eggplant-y red and smells like vibrant dark fruit. Currant, cherry, vanilla, spice and oak. Starts mellow and fruit heavy and then ends in a spicy, tannic feel that's not quite rounded but very, very good.
