08' Venge Vineyards Family Reserve. Very close to a pop & pour wine. Decanting it for 30+ minutes certainly helped. When I originally had this wine 4/5 years ago... A little too much oak on the front of the palate. NOW, very classy wine. Dark chocolate, hint of espresso. Fine integrated tannins. Layers of black/blue fruits... long & inviting finish😉. I've got to purchase more! Drinking window is now/5+ great years! Why wait?

Excellently structured with a great balance of fruit, acidity, oak and tannins. Silky smooth mouthfeel and fantastic tastes of dark fruit.
