Popped and poured; enjoyed over two days. Best on Day 1. The 2017 pours a deep garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated fruit: brambles, cherry cordial, red rope licorice, well worn and oiled leather ball glove, some black pepper and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. On a shelf surrounded by Josh and 19 Crimes, this was a delightful shining light at a random liquor store find in Chandler, OK along Route 66. Drink now.

Like an old world, spicy zin. Raspberry, tart cherry, stems, walnut shell bitterness. Good value.

Resinous/dank, fig, blackberry, spice. Juicy, round palate and a surprisingly long finish.

So many great moments tasting this wine. It does not make 10 only because it is lighter than what I like🍷

Fine. Nothing to write home about, but nothing negative.
