Really shy aromatically, but gives up plenty on the palate. Needed 3 hours before it started unfolding. Nicely polished mouthfeel. Rich, dark fruit with a creamy, savory, bacon finish

I feel ensconced is velvet. Cozy comfy and safe. This baby is in it to win it.

Modern chunky style. Very good. Paired well with the air dropped Lou Malnati’s from the homeland.

If I keep opening things like this, social distancing and I are going to get along just fine. Weighty, rich, lush, and wonderful. Ripe raspberry fruit along with copious amounts of mocha and olive. Smooth and velvety tannins with a peppery, endless finish. Just fantastic. Already regretting I only bought 3 bottles.

Over the top, a little one dimensional but nice if you are in the mood.

Needs more time in the bottle, but it still drinks really well now. Ripe berry favors with licorice and pencil lead aromas. Very smooth with a relatively light mouthfeel. Would love to try it again in a few years.
