Wonderful with ripe red fruits, balanced by juicy acidity.

My last bottle of the wine that introduced me to Helen's wines. Aromas of herbs, lavender, fall leaves, and smoked meat. Savory black fruit, black olives, and a smooth tannic finish. So sad that I don't have any more.

Complex and layered with sage, lavender and clove. Time reveals concentrated fleshy blackberry and wet stones. What a treat. Glad I have one more of these.

Holy black tea Batman! Dark cherries and strawberries. Mushroom. Leather. Dried orange peel. And more black tea. Brooding, but still bright.

Showing great tonight. Didn't take formal notes, but I did like the structure. Serving temperature will be essential! Keep this monster cool.
