Drinking 2016 vintage on 12/14. Inky dark, remnants of currant, and mild pepper. High alcohol (14.5%) but very smooth. I feel like whiskey drinkers would appreciate this wine…maybe.

This is a surprisingly decent PV for the vintage. Still lots of dark berries on this one. Smooths our after open for some time but still pretty good.

Drinking really nice right now. Has that nice little spicy element on the palette. Lots of darker fruit too. Little funk on the nose. Nice.
