Dark cherry core, vanilla, cola and nutmeg, savory mushroom finish. Well made, good texture, tea-like tannins.

The nose is quite similar to the Londer Vineyard (Anderson Valley as well) bottling of the same 2013 vintage, with bouquet of blueberry, raspberry, steep red tea, vanilla, mushroom, and warm spices. Layered and supple, the palate is more savory on the palate than the nose suggests. Ripe candied tannins.
At its peak but should have staying power for another 2-3 years.

V13. Very good! Smokey, crushed cherry nose. Fresh black cherry fruit. Nice, slightly tart, earthy, black pepper and baking spice finish. Nice weight and balance.
