A solo Passover Wine, if not shared Zoom style. Has a bouncy, fruity style but love this vintner, who brings in the alcohol at 13%. Still, somehow a bit somber in our compartmentalized Zoom land, & reflected in this makers restraint.

Apr 9th, 2020My second rodeo with Mr. St John, glad I am here: a deeper dive into black fruits than his Cote Du Rhône homage, & a more generous palate. Still all in balance, a restrained hand, but the terroir speaks through his hand, amen. Grenache, some Tempranillo, some Mourvedre, and some Graciano. Decanted about 1/2 hr. Delectable allows me to name only my local tag sale but not my town? Whaadup @Delectable Wine ?

Fresh raspberry, rose water, and green banana, attributable to whole cluster fermentation. Mourvèdre, Tempranillo, and Grenache equal parts. Spices, herbs, and slight earthy notes.

Really beautiful. Held up and evolved beautifully over 4 days. Red fruit and spice with a nice earthy base. Drinking pretty well now but will probably benefit from some aging.

Light-ish color in the glass. Nose of fresh raspberries and strawberries. A little on the sweeter side of dry. Short finish. Took awhile to open up and then could notice some spicy undertones.
Overall, went great with steak fajitas, but this one fell a little flat for me. I was expecting more...

Opened up after an hour. Good complexity. Great with skirt steak fajitas.

Needed 2+ hours of air. Cherries, rock, some sort of tropical flavor peaking through (banana, pineapple?). Some herbal flavors. Very nice but seems young.
