First red wine at Table #2 at Oakton Wine Shops Bucket List Tasting.
Medium to deep ruby red. Super smoky on the nose and charred with matches, rocks and graphite. A bit of olives and dark cherries too. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Tons of rocks on the palate with cherries, layered with toast and olive tapenade. Very dry and super long finish. Built to age. Drink till 2030. (93+)
