Enjoyed at Brick and Brine. Is a blend, often featuring Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with velvety tannins that make it versatile enough to be served slightly chilled with grilled meats, spicy international dishes, or enjoyed on its own. — 2 months ago
Deep Ruby color with a bouquet of fruit, earthy herbs, tobacco and floral notes. On the palate flavors of sour cherry and raspberry with notes of herb pepper, floral and earthy notes. Medium+ finish, good balance with fine tannins ending with cacao, tobacco, fruit and earthy nutty notes. — 3 months ago
Structure is on point: high acidity, long finish, full mouthfeel. Flavors are a jumbled mess though. Bruised fruit is primary. Clean up some of that and this would be fire. — 5 months ago
Absolutely excellent. Aromatics actually faded a bit with a 1.5 hour decant, so might watch that in the future. Lots of earthy cherry. Not overly refined, but in a good way - tastes like the older school piemonte that it is, with just the right bit of earth and leather. Excellent acid and a long pure finish. Great pairing with Kinderhook pork chops with a porchetta style seasoning. — a month ago
Exotic candied cinnamon, licorice, sassafras, granite. Clean. Aging well. — 4 months ago
