    Will post my very amatuer tasting notes after the meal and a glass or two has been had!

    *So far, has been amazing. Heavy blackberry with leather notes(according to my Fiancée who has the better palate). Tannins are velvety smooth. We decanted for two hours before dinner than poured back into the bottle and put into fridge for 30min. Compared to the sample we had after we opened it, it’s a completely different wine. It paired nicely with the burger but tbh it really clicks with the Andes mints I’ve been eating with it right now.

    11/10

    Burgers and wine on Christmas… are you taking any applications for a new spouse?

    Hell yeah! I’ve only tried the 02 vintage with my wife’s grandparents on a trip to Scottsdale. Need to save up for another.

    Bottle of wine cost more than the flooring in the kitchen

    I had a chance to snag a bottle of the 2016 at half off retail a couple months ago but opted for the 2018. Curious to hear how this one drank! Merry Christmas!

    I mean it technically pairs pretty well!
    Really fun to pair low with high class!
