Game and iron, some florals and scorched earth? Not every day you find something like this. #chicago #bucktown #tabledonkeystick #chateaumusar

This was drinking well, youthful for its age displaying good acidity with a deep dark color, tart red cherry, berry fruits, exotic spices, leather & roasted nut

Opened this on Saturday night, but it really wasn’t singing until Sunday. Lighter red color. Noticeable ripe red and black fruit on the nose. By the second night fruit was singing. Beautifully balanced wine. A conversation wine. Beautiful in that Musar kind of way. From the Maggie Harrison’s Collective Club.

Absolutely delicious. Spice, herbs, fabulous fruit. If I could I stuff the cellar with this wine.

Really excellent. Incredibly aromatic from the moment it hit the glass. Definitely serve at or just above cellar temp. Excellent acid, long finish, a hint of ripe dark fruit and raisin, just very tasty.
