At Ruby’s with steak. Marvelous. Dark fruits with herbal undertones yet vibrant with enough acidity to keep it fresh. +2 pairing with grilled steak.

Complexity of a 19 year old wine without the tannins. Smooth and rich.

Needs time to open to a full flavor flavor bold wine. Was quite surprised. Front to back with bold fruit.
