Dinner with the in-laws at our favorite restaurant in Fort Worth.
My in-laws brought this as we all enjoy Jessup wines...as you can see by the score, this is a nice wine, but it’s just incredibly young. This wine is always Jessup’s last to mature. It will improve by 1-2 pts in time, so part of this is based on potential as well as current enjoyment. A lot of underripe dark fruit, oak, acidity and big tannic structure at first. Nutmeg, plum, currant and dark chocolate come through after. If you’re opening, decant at least 1-2hrs.
