A
blend from some of the serious grape varietals of 2017, this nearly 5-year old
beauty is one to enjoy with quality people and food. With an almost opaque color, the fruit
forwardness is very transparent with rich blackberries and a hint of cigar. Let
it sit for about an hour and relish the aromas filling the glass before that initial
sip. The flavor packs some good dark chocolate and a little bit of spice here
and there. The acids are moderate, and the tannins are still firm, but not
overpowering. Sitting around for five years, it is drinking quite well now.
Hold if you wish, but do not miss out on this jewel right now if you can spare
an extra bottle. Worthy of enjoyment today. Santé!
