After some rough natural wines today this was a nice reprieve and back to the basics. Easy drinking with good structure and complimentary flavors for the T-bone we had for dinner. Earthy forest notes on the nose and some blackberry and vanilla. Good structure and acidity, fine on its own but great with food. Need to get up to finger lakes soon to try some more.

Pear, apple, slate, lemon curd and hints of stone fruit. Great acidity and minerality.

Blackbery, black cherry, violet, raspberry, currant and oak. Good acidity and well-integrates tannins.

Loads of black cherry and cassis with a nice oaky backbone. Another great vintage of a classic cool climate red.
