Brighter and more fruit than a typ Malbec

Earthy, acidic, acetone.

Big and grippy but shockingly balanced. Molly’s.

Nose: pepper, slight red fruit. Taste: sour cherry, pepper, ripening, stronger tannins, clean cherry finish. Slightly unripe overall but still tasty for ~$15.

Enjoyed this one with friends at buccan along with: hamachi, brussel sprouts, sweet corn angolotti, caramel pork belly steamed buns, spicy pork tacos, and rock shrimp squash blossoms.

Really enjoyed this bottle

Initially smooth with a bit of a smokiness. End is a tad bitter/sour...would drink again but dont love it it
