The tightly wound

the wine will require a bit of patience

anise and the sauvage adding breadth to the ripe dark currant scents

Sloan, Proprietary Red Vintage:2014 The tightly woundDeep garnet purple colored, the 2014 Proprietary Red needs a little coaxing to reveal slowly unfurling notions of warm black cherries, mulberries, redcurrants and blackberry compote with touches of licorice, tapenade, chargrill and scorched earth. Full bodied, firm, grainy and packed with layers of black fruits and savory flavors, it has a firm, grainy backbone of very ripe tannins and tons of vivacity, finishing very long.
