Ruby with rich berry fruit, citrus and floral spice. On the palate, strawberry and cherry, tangy, with cola and cedar notes adding earthy tones. Bright acidity, soft expressive tannins, long finish ending with mineral and cedar spice. Very nice, drink now & over next 5 years.

TW, liked a lot (think I had this years ago in Palo Alto…). 14.3% / P&B / Retains a bit of European austerity but still very round in fruit + oak

Nose: Raspberries, gravel
Taste: raspberry is very present. A touch of cherries develops along with it. Finish is gravel with light tobacco. Light body, feels a touch boozy, medium acidity.
Overall I like it as something to drink casually. Not too much complexity, but very pleasant.

Delicious! Pairs well with pasta, chicken piccata, and of course, bread!
