Before i tasted it i thought it smelled too oaky, Cooked down bramble fruit behind. Basically a stupid wine. Oak and jam.

Jan 19th, 2017V11. Very dark juice. Soft white pepper and cedar bouquet. Rich, deep blackberry , plum, spice, tar and violet fruit. Soft, chalky finish. Lots of words , but really balanced and very good!
