Paired this delicious wine, from our last trip to Sonoma County 2016, with spinach and ricotta ravolis. We've been letting it settle from it's move from NJ to IL and decided St Patrick's day Eve seemed like as good of an excuse as any to break it open. Worth the wait. Label say...in the winter, when you draw the wine, let there be in your heat a song for each cup... Well singing it's praises. Full-bodied and we'll rounded finish. Enjoying with Steve Walker at Casa Walker

Dried blackberry, leather and spice. Big glycerine mouthfeel, juicy finish. Boozy.

Holy boozy. But, age has smoothed it out a bit. Oaky. But so boozy. Ah - smoothed out even more after open for a bit. Changing rating.

Black pepper on the nose, really smooth mouthfeel and dried fruits on the finish
