Top Notes For

8.8

Dark garnet/purple to edges of glass with a strong nose of black plum with maybe black cherry too with hints of some wet earth. Medium+ body with a slight jammy feel in the mouth. Medium acidity and clear tannins & dryness at the end. Red plum with some chalkiness. Pretty good and probably better with more air & food.

So loaded with sulfur that I'm not sure I can get past that. I'll leave it open and try to turn it into a decent sangria!
