Oh what a vintage does!

This baby has changed in 2016. At first taste, spritzy and dark raspberry. I let it decant for a bit, and it does not disappoint. Herbs, spicy mid palate, dried red fruit wrapped in thyme and parsley (no joke). Fiercely good. Not as massively tannic as last vintage but lovely. Would love to track through the next couple years.

Took an hour to open up. Just delicious. I’m going to try more Uruguay wines.

Round red raspberries and dark cherries, unsweetened dark chocolate, and a touch of plum. Medium acidity. Really came alive with some spicy beef tacos.

What an amazing surprise! Lovely fruity dry red wine. Needs food. Pairs well with sirloin.

Smokey, bitter, punchy. Delicious but needs a big dish to stand up to it
