Solid wine, echoing my previous notes. Black and red fruit, nicely integrated black tea tannins, espresso and smoke. Really enjoyable and a great pairing with pizza! Drink now - 2029.

Notes from day 2 (when it showed best). A nice earthy funk running through this one, making me think there's some juice from The Rocks in this. Black and red fruits, mild tannins, espresso and bits of smoked meat here and there. Lovely wine! Drink now - 2029.

Spot on with my previous note. Interestingly, this had a very strong menthol aroma when first popped, but that blew off with some air. Drinking quite well right now, but has more years of upside. Drink now - 2029.

Beautiful wine...very elegant, with the Grenache showing very clearly with strawberry fruit, pipe tobacco and white pepper. This was fantastic paired with grilled salmon and asparagus. Drink now - 2029.

Dark, a bit of alcohol on the nose. Bright acid, cherries, solid finish. Not as funky as I expected, but enjoyable nonetheless.
