This is home. Underbrush, smoke, iodine, dark blueberries. Consistent palate with a fresh mid palate that leads to a long structured finish. Some coffee ground, touch of chocolate truffle dust. Amazing...

For those looking for a chicken mole pairing. Some tannic grip, luscious fruit, and spice/pepper.
