My 2 favorite parts of the G.S.M blend. The S and the M. Well, the Spanish version. Listen, some of you do not see the beauty in this, bc you do NOT appreciate harsh earthiness and pencil shavings mixed with stale coffee and plum.... But this handsome bastard sure as hell does. Pour this on my chest and turn off the lights. Great wine.

Deep dark fruit wrapped in earthy solid tannins, not exactly pizza wine but it did well with the onion and potato pizza.

Initial whiff burned my nostrils. Dry fruit notes. Slightly sweet. Hard to categorize.

(16/20) Вино с ароматом сливы, ежевики, черники, ванили и зелёным тоном болгарского перца. Высокая кислотность и довольно интенсивные, бархатистые танины. Алкоголь проявляется во вкусе. Весьма неплохое вино не лишенное некоторой сложности, однако зеленый перец в аромате мешает.

Jan 31st, 2017Punch in the face flavor with a dry lingering finish, a little overwhelming for my liking but I can appreciate the taste, drink slow like an aged scotch

Yikes. This badboy is rough. Robert Parker needs to rethink this 92 rating. It is awful but it has a very distinct, unflattering taste. Reminds me of cigar ashes the next day. We ended up cooking with it.
