Funky and horsey on the nose. Big, rich and ripe for a 14. Good structure. Low acid. Not bad. Not great.

Woodsy forest like aromas and flavors, good minerality, good grip, fresh and sappy red fruits, well balanced.

Its fairly murky and was served really chilled which accentuated tannin still enjoyed it pretty much which is testament to the place and the quality of source, but dang if a little cleaner, brighter would've liked more

Dark wood trimmings, dead flowers, lots of medieval energy in this one. Blackberry and black plum with hints of clove and cinnamon on the nose. Very earthy and mineral with a nice grip that begs for food. Layered and complex.

Wine #2 -minimal intervention Cru Beauj - funky, tart cherry, surprisingly clean finish. Perfect for first slate of NFL games on European time.

Some sticks in the grape mix. Lively though, easy sipping, leather and chemicals on the nose
