This TN, and four others, were some wines enjoyed(?) over the last two days. Woke up on the 23rd. with a slight feaver and it's developed into a whopping sinus infection..102 feaver last night. Soooo, take these tn's with a grain of salt as the sniffer and taster are on holiday.
I thought this wine showed better last February when sampled at a tasting event. Deep and dark, showed one dimensional dark,lush fruit. All agreed, seemed shut down. Personnaly I think it has great potential. 13.5%Alc/vol.
