This wine is perfectly aged for tonight. Needs a few years, and it will shine, like tonight.

Smells of blackberry prune preserves.

Tastes of Ripe bush fruit, oregano, super juicy, well rounded mouthfeel, soft, feathery tannins that mingle swimmingly well with the acid and stave.
Great wine, great price. Just needs to sit for a hot minute.

Delightful Rhône red blend. Medium body with soft tannins and exuberant fruit that flows over the palate. K&L has this beauty @ $12. versatile and able to age 5+ years.

Grenache/Carignan Blend. Really interesting nose. A bit of barnyard funk with dark cherry fruit. Goes a bit array on the pallet however. Kind of nondescript. Light cherry fruit flavor with some mineral notes. Short finish that is a bit sharp. Might need a bit more bottle age. Make sure to decant this one. Better the second day.

Smells delicious but the taste doesn’t hold up. Nice hint of barn yard on the nose, but not much taste. An immediate spice on the palette, but almost no finish. The brief spice overwhelms any other possible complexity.

Raspberries, cherry syrup, herbs de provence, beef bullion. Needs some air, so, decant.
