Violet. Licorice. Carmelized red fruit. Sous bois. Smoke. Rendered bacon fat. Dried cork sped up the aging process. Still has acid to go for some time, but settled after a couple hours decanted. Limited length and structure.

Stunning. A touch reductive on opening, but clear and precise with a couple of moments off rest.

Ruby. Nose is a bit shy. Medium body, medium plus acidity, medium tannins, red cherry, blackberry, raspberry. Fruit forward but nice and mild. Medium finish. Opens up a bit.

Im beginning to explore Burgundy. Medium indigo color. Bright red fruit on the nose. Smooth and light-med bodied. Cherry and strawberry, raspberry. Seems med-light tannic and acidic. Light minerality and earthiness. Pleasant and easy drinking. While in the glass I began to appreciate it more and more. Smooth and delicate.
