What a Friday group tasting put on by Dan! Killer wines. 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 5 reds, 1 dessert. All blind.
Back of my mind wanted to say Rochioli but I just couldn’t do it. Should have! Similar muddled raspberry profile, little bit more spice to it. More dark fruit too. Someone called it zin due to the fruit. Again, I called this a mid-2000s WS. Was on fire with my guesses today evidently.

Selyem "Rochioli" vineyard 2006. Closed at first (expected), cherry, earth, black tea leaf, mild tannins once it showed itself. Very pleasing & noticeable acidity.
