Cab/Agiorghitiko. blackberry. black licorice. fermented in steel, aged 18-24 mos in FR oak. to compare to something more familiar- it falls between left bank bordeaux and mountain Napa cab. firm tannins but juicy acid lifts in, lively

Dark, rich nose of currant, mocha dust and a hint of smoke. Blackberries pop on the palate with a deep, dense structure and firm acid. Based on tasting the '98 side-by-side, I'd recommend letting this go to 2019 and drinking then (because of how the brett takes over the wine).

Grippy, leathery red with excellent structure. Really nice tobacco and star anise aromas

Mild brett on the nose sticks out a bit (horse sweat style) with a burst of pomegranate. Licorice and light dusty tannins with some more brett on the palate. Drink now - a touch past peak.

Killer acid level here, bright but delicate red fruit, gripping tannins. This is awesome. Superb. #texsom
