Tasting Note:January 7, 2017

Open for 2 hours and it is delicious. Deep garnet red. Layered nose with red fruits with some tertiary notes on both plate and nose. Like mushrooms, and truffles. Moderate tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Some as the nose. Love it, with some solid minerality down the midpalate. Dry long finish.
