Much better the second time around with this wine. Big and tannic, peppery, dried savory herbs, hint of barnyard, and loads of dedicated fruit, prune, and fig.

2007. My first wine from this region. Monster tannins, very dense and chewy. Kind of like a young petit verdot/cab franc blend. Neat stuff.

Surprised by deep runny inky color. Herbal savory dried dark fruit nose and complex earthy palate that’s still rather tannic and long finish with a bit of heat. Almost overpowered our first pasta carbonara in long time but an excellent wine.

Soft on the palate, really opens up on the finish. Volcanic minerality with underlying fruit.
