Gamey bouquet - kind of funky. But the wine is good. Northern Rhone-ISH. Interesting for sure.

Oct 2nd, 2014Medium ruby hue. Aromas of baking spice, black cherry, blackberry, cherry, dark chocolate, mushroom, pepper, plum, red licorice, sage, vanilla. (Think Twizzlers.) Plus body, plus tannins, medium acid. Silky palate with an inviting finish. Balanced. Vintage drinking well now. If you dig the pepper note in Cabernet Franc, Carmenere, or Syrah, this wine is your jam. 100% Agiorgitiko.
