Red currants on the palate. Light wine with earthiness and high acidity.

Hint of tobacco at first. Less desirable finish in this blend. Only a year old. December 2019.

2018 in 12/20. Not a ton to note. Little gamey, dark blue blk fruits. Alc and tannins in a very approachable spot. Certainly drinkable, even crushable for some. The white version is more impressive to me esp when considering price which is $10 for either so I'm not bitching about this one. Syr base w Cin, Mrv,Gren. Syr loves the AP gls! Tim's.
