Muddy ruby color with a brick rim. Aromas of black cherry/currant/plum with hints of wet soil, tar, leather and truffles. Same fruits on the pallet with additional notes of black licorice, dried sage and tobacco. Nice acidity level and the tannins are mellowing out. Medium bodied and very traditional in style. Touch of milk chocolate and menthol on the very long finish. Could age longer but glad we opened this one. Quite the crowd pleaser. Thanks for sharing, Kase and Petey!

First bottle opened out of a 6-pack bought years ago in the presentation case. Impressive. Wine gets dissed a bit, bit it’s super solid winemaking here.

Dominant oxidized sour cherry, dried rblack cherries. Med body, med p acid, med p intensity, med p tannin, fruit and tannin goes together but more structured.
