Opened sometime prior to service. The 2021 pours a ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of funky brambles, purple flowers, capsicum, smoke, horse blanket and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Every. Single. Time. I drink these wines from Clay de Nell, i@ reminded of their deep soul and incredible value. Particularly their Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. Awesome. Drink now through 2036.
