Refosk

16. Slovenia, Dry red

Great, send 3 bottles to Seattle

Popped and poured. Deep garnet color with an opaque core. Horse blanket, fresh cut prairie grass, lavender, dark cherry, and underbrush on the nose. The palate was montmorency cherries, grapefruit, and minerals (think Gerolsteiner). High acid. Medium (+?) tannin. Long finish. Killer with food.

Usually when I sample the wine I’m just concentrating on whether anything if “off”. I don’t know if it’s because we’ve had so few fine dining experiences since COVID, but this wine instantly bright back memories of some of the finest culinary moments I’ve ever had. Dining at Fandango’s in Monterey.

Sooo luscious and velvety. Lots of dark fruit

Oaky red. Would be good with red meat

Spicy and Tannins, as they say need to be decanted 30+ minutes

Strong peppercorn nose. Dark color. Earthy and acidic with a slightly tart finish. Unique wine.

Finished up a nosh board with a glass. Smooth and easy.

Some bitterness.
