  Hanging on, but without a lot to hand on to, the light to medium-bodied red berry-filled wine offers an herb, dried flower, peppery spice profile with a crispness to the fruit and the tannins.

  7/10/2021 - Lype Likes this wine:

  Earthy scents and fragrant raspberry on the nose, the palate is mature and provides undergrowth, raspberry flauvors, black currant, leather, bell pepper, graphite as many have mentioned the finish is subtle but quite nice. Not the most complex wine, a bit soft lacking precision but enjoyable especially considering the price point. Fruit is still there but tannins are starting to take this gradually over so I would say its time to drink up.

  Mature bouquet with tobacco, cigar and autumn impressions. On the palate mild acidity and soft tannin. Pleasant and mature wine.

  Four hour slow oxidation. Medium ruby fading to a pale garnet outer edge. Delicate nose of red and black fruit - that became more black fruit dominant as we neared the end of the bottle - highly mineral with graphite and pencil shavings, feint burnt embers, and grilled green peppers. Elegant and well integrated with fine grained tannins.
