Taste: A little fuzzy on the tongue, a bit bitter, but smooth in the middle. Pretty fruity overall, but dry.
Finish: Nice balanced tannins - well balanced overall. We recommend for Christmas dinner
What we say: V - "I'm getting a lot more oak on the nose on the second go around" S - "Is it peppery?" V- "I quite like the nose. It's good balance between berries and wood." S - "It's a forest. In the fall. But not soggy. Like a fresh, crisp day" "I can smell the greens - like parsley." S - "The taste is not caramelly, but it's something like that. Like thick, dark, berry juice." "It's well-balanced... I think... I'm not even sure what that terms means, but I'm going to use it anyway.' V - "There's a tiny hint of festivities." S - "Do you think it's cinnamon?"
What they say: Shows an array of ripe fruits, swathed in dense and sweet-cured oak flavours. A polished nose of black cherries and cassis, the same on the palate with hints of cocoa and molasses and hints of mineral to finish.
