WNH event number two. Rhône varietal wines with TX BBQ...a match made in Heaven!

This was drinking so incredibly well. Complexity and depth here without the heaviness. Underripe red and black fruit with black peppercorn finish. Slight stewed red fruits too. Really loved the spice here. Bravo

Now we are talking. Dark berries, smoked meats, olive, beautiful acidity. Tanins are medium.

Beautiful smoke, olive and floral scents fight for attention. A very silky and expressive palate with wonderful fruit concentration. Thank you @Fraser McKinley for motivating me.

I’m a sucker for Clape. Rich, ripe and mineral driven. Lots of power but marked beauty and lush tannins. Licorice infused soil and sweet, sappy red fruit.

Classic, and still needs a lot of time. Violets, granite, savory fruit.
