Perfect way to start of #WAWINEMONTH with this bottle from Full Pull Wines. Deep ruby red in appearance. Dark spices on the nose with candied blackcherries, cinnamon, and a little herbal. Seems to have closed down a bit since last time. Medium plus tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Dry on the palate with black currants, cassis, sweet spices and dried herbs. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2027. (91+)

Mar 2nd, 2018Deep ruby red with a purplish hue. Lovely nose, quite thick too with an attack of caramel and cinnamon mix, followed up with a smokey hint, vanilla, dried earth and lots of oak. Cassis undertone as well. Heavy tannins (7.5/10) and full bodied. Needed a little bit of air but then opened up beautifully. Very savory on the palate with tons of black currants, sage and dried herbs. Dry and long finish. Would love to find out who the winemaker/winery is behind this and try out some more of their wines. Will easily drink well for the next decade. Drink till 2027.
