Good. Fruit is in the purple zone, dark savory notes include coffee and caramel, have to say wine is 15%+ (within the 1% variance of labeled 14.9% ABV), acidity is med+. A lil hollow on its own and could benefit from blending. Suggest pairing with coffee rubbed pork loin with blackberry compote.

This needed an hour and warming up to 70 F to get interesting. Plum, chocolate, chile spice, decently smooth tannins and acidity. 14.7%.

Deep ruby core, clean, dry, med. aroma intensity, strawberry, cranberry and rhubarb on the nose and palate, med. acid, med. tannin, definitely has pinot character with a bit of oomph. Medium finish. Good quality. Drink now, potential for aging 3-5 years.
