I had an "Ah Ha!" moment with this wine today. Only took me 11 months.

Very nice! This is probably at its peak drinking window. Very well integrated. Even though this is 14.9% abv, there is absolutely no heat.

I totally dismissed this the first time I had it. But the second time around, I'm enjoying it a lot more. Interesting vegetal notes. Nice finish!

Celebrating the new kitchen with a killer lineup of reds! Meat, earth, and fruit in perfect harmony. A real treat.
