Just fine for the price. Personally not for me. A little too much fruit on the front.

Indulgence. This one is a journey. It has a lot of character, like a rebellion of intensity. Love it.

Smell: distinct acidic smell, strong hints of plum and oaky tones.
Taste: originally liked it more, but once it's been sitting and developing, I liked it less. The more time sitting the higher tasting acid tones, which I don't necessarily love. Medium body, low tannins.

Jan 24th, 2023Enjoyed this one. Medium to full bodied. Lots of cherry/raspberry with a hint of oak to tone it down. Had with pesto, tomato and basil chicken and thought it paired well. Cheese board for dessert and totally enjoyed this one tonight. Will buy again. Had the 2019 in November of 2022.
