Taste the rainbow—of darker fruits anyway. So much black plum, black cherry and wicked rich tannic black grapes. With a whiff of raisin-y barnyard dirt. To a non-wine-taster? Like gulping dried dried fruit buried in soil. To a metaphor lover? This (to a female anyway) is the older woman you befriend who you get on a soul level. She has a lot to teach you and yet... your zest for life has something for her—it could actually use EITHER more age OR a whiff if of whimsical youth. Enough to make you think “this wine is wise”! Either way if you wanna think or appreciate the earth try this stuff. Mmmmm

Dark and mulled fruit on the nose - plum jam, rhubarb pie, cooked strawberry, and stewed fig. On the palate you get dark cherry, aniseed, cola, cinnamon, clove, and cocoa. Medium tannins, medium plus alcohol, and high acid.

Slightly Acidic has a semi dry finish with mix of bright and dark fruit. Best if decanted.
