Smells like a spiced pastry

Lively! Red stars dance across the tongue for only a meaty mingling moment, before the tannins start smacking every part of the mouth, up, down, left, right, Jab, Jab, Ka-pow! Those knock out tannins longer on and on.. and on..
Wish I had bought 2 bottles, this needs at least 5 years to relax those teen tannins.
I mean, don’t close your mouth for too long on these tannins, as they act like a vacuum and super glue. You’ll never get your jaws apart..

Eucalyptus wrapped blackberry fruit leather - a powerfully intoxicating nose.

This wineries wine ages so well -
Medium heft, dark berry, some light smoke, that eucalyptus coming through in the flavors. High concentration of plum, some citrus acidity. So much going on - a lot of folks tired of Merlot, yet I say give the grape a chance again - winemakers are doing amazing things nowadays.

Medium bodied with Pinot like characteristics, twigs and bramble, bright cherry, stone fruit, white pepper and tarragon.
A lovely wine to imbibe with some detective show..

Smells of stone milled fruit..

The river stone continues in here, with hints of eucalyptus, dried dark cherry, dried blueberry, flecks of pepper. An amazing wine, as most from this region are - hitting every pleasure point that you want from a wine.

Strong nose of strawberry candy

Medium bodied, candied strawberry, cherry, hint of mint, stone and grape skin tannins.
Another good Vino de Mexico, if you know what it is you are drinking, 100% Stainless steel fermentation allows for a softer approach to the grape, and allows for more fruit expression.

Sweet grass and smoke this is one of the best Mezcals I have ever had. Found at a farmers market in CDMX, bought one bottle and love every inch of it. The taste is like chewing on those táseles from jackets in the 80’s. Smooth and flavorful. Please seek this one out, when next in Mexico. — 14 days ago

I mean, who doesn’t love a Rhône valley wine?

Classically lovely barnyard wafts, yet more finesse, like a farm to table Michelin rated restaurant, amidst cows and grad and methane gas.

A weighty wine, with dark berry overall, a hint of Brett, yet not enough to kill all of the flavor, cherry tart, menthol, pomegranate seed, flexing tannins.
A fine ripple these eve. Although bested at darts, I nearly came though in dominoes.

Smells of deep cherry chocolate bark

Dark cherries dominate the fruit- the herbs seem to lift that dark cherry up, in a savory way. Mint, tarragon, coffee, a hefty wine, with a singing acidity.

Dusty cellar nose

Medium bodied and full of life! Some new leather, fig, hazelnut, strong and fit. Mint and cherry zinger finish this long, lingering, finish.
