2013 with an hour decant is rocking. Aromatics solid, wonderful texture on the palate, lush and rich.

Though the brutal TX heat is back, it means plenty of time for grilling, and this was a fun red blend to pair with burgers.

A fun field blend where everything but the kitchen sink seems to be in here…mostly zin, with 6-7 lesser known varietals. A bit funky upon opening (pop and pour), this opened to reveal a brambly, tobacco leaf, weightless yet jammy profile. Soft and supple mixed fruits aromatically (mostly red and black fruits), with some added woody notes (more earthy than oak driven). The mid palate here reminds you this is zin to its core with plenty of black cherry compote and then the vibrant acidity driven finish sports some black pepper and spicy rhubarb. Mostly integrated at this point, I think this is at its apex.

Bright acidity, crisp, texture is getting more plush, dark fruit. Wine has evolved nicely in 6 months.

Gave this a 90 minute decant. Still young. Fresh tasting with good acidity. Dark black and blue fruit.

Wow! Drinking so nice now. Rich fruit with lots of delicious dirt in there.
