Tasting Note:May 5, 2017

Last of the wines tasted with Dan and Filipa at there home. Delicious juice in this bottling from up on Pritchard Hill, more specifically from the Gandona Estate Vineyard.

Super dark ruby red with a powerful and dark nose. Layered with dark cinnamon and vanilla, dark cocoa, super dark berries, graphite and gunpowder. Moderate plus tannins (7.5/10) and full bodied. Luscious palate with layers of blue and black fruit with some nutmeg and dark gravel. Long and lingering finish. Definitely needs some time to soften up and integrate further.
