8.8

- Color: very dark, can only see bottom a little. Light pink around the rim with Maroon tones. A lot of particulate matter. Almost towing with a halo of red
- Smell: Blueberry, deeper berry on the nose. Metallic sense of smell. Plum smell. Molasses, blackberry. Nuts, leather/cigar box
- Texture: fuller, richer
- You can feel the Tannen, dry layer over tongue.
- Vanilla, herbaciousness, fruitiness but not sugary really. Very bitter. Fruit forward
- Food pairing: steak, burger, red meat. Cuts away the bitterness a little. Mac and cheese, heavy. Trip trip steak, heavy duty stuff, portobello mushroom

- Sweet start light finish, doesn’t leave your lips sticky
- Earthy for a white wine
- On the Mosel, clay based river in the wine country
