Certain aged wines have that caramel/honeyed nose to them, this is showing that to be true again.
Salted boysenberry, pomegranate pith, dried cherry, popsicle stick tannins that still hold the fruit with every teeth mark. A little playful acidity peeks out every now and then, and helps allow this wine to become a wonderful weekend’s end ponderer..

This wine seemed closed off on first taste. But 10 minutes later this transformed to a more ethereal wine. Still very light and tight but overall needs time to open up.

Had their ‘12 Sarmassa last year. Strawberry, pith, rose. Big, structured tannins. Killer for price. Coravin’d a few times before finishing with Detroit style pizza.

Great random buy for $30. Brick ish colored. Slightly more old school than new world but it toes the line. Initially, the black fruits pop new world style but quickly fade to a more traditional, old world style of black cherry, jacqueminot rose, and tar shine after a 60 min decant.

Light bodied, “pinot Noir-like” red that surprises with its depth and good structure. Faint cherry and smoky aromas. Red cherry, tobacco flavors with huge notes of mushroom and truffles. Brick color. Thanks for opening this one, John Pecallier!
