A few fun 4th Friday wines from tonight.
A Cali spin on burgundy. I’m assuming some whole cluster usage here as it’s a bit green/stemmy on the nose. Spicy in the sense of rhubarb and cracked peppercorn. Some smoked meats as well. On the palate, it’s very light...green pepper, underripe black-cherries, herbal, and dirt covered mulch. I’d consider popping these soon.

From a restaurant list. Dark reddish ruby. High pitched nose with notes of black fruit, rhubarb, some steminess. Nice in the mouth. Young and vibrant. Needed air, needs time.

Acid & sharp tannins on the front. Maybe a couple more years to calm down?
