Delicious and savory with spiced blackberry cobbler, blueberry & plum jam, and mild anise on the nose. On the palate rich and decadent with dark, jammy fruits and clove. Thanks @Shay A for recommending “Put a Cork In It” up in FW. That place, as well as the others you recommended, were on-point 👌🏻

3 years since last tasted and it’s great! I remember thinking I shouldn’t touch for awhile. I’d say it’s now in window and on the upslope.
Palate is great. Dense mouthfeel chocolate, candied currant, anise, rhubarb?, baking spices, and cedar with grainy, almost sandy tannin. Long finish. All of those things coming together pretty nicely. Upping a point.

Great Napa red blend. Nose of red fruit, allspice, and maybe a little nutmeg. Taste of black licorice, damp soil, and rubarb. Would buy multiple bottles of this wine again.
