Drinking with Emily and friends. Spicy and smooth. Great to drink on it’s own or with food.

Pant-moisteningly good. Full with a meaningful but not over powering tannin structure. Big notes, needs food. But again, not overwhelming

Fizzy in the mouth, which I think means post bottling fermentation. Once you get past the fizz, caramelized sugar and tar predominate with alcohol pushing through. This wine is way out of balance. Life is too short. Back the wine cellar.
