Tasting Notes
The 2024 Meyney reveals a brooding, dark bouquet of dark berries, spices and oak. Medium-bodied, firm and compact, it's built around brittle tannins, concluding with a cigar-inflected finish.

Leafy character on the opening, but it settles into itself and the mid palate fills out with cocoa bean and fleshy cherry pit, fresh acidities, uplift on the finish.
The 2024 Meyney has a well-defined bouquet with blackberry, wild strawberry and light cassis notes, but I just seek a little more delineation and nuance. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and saline with sappy black fruit, finely knit tannins and a cohesive finish. I like the length of this Meyney and, given its reasonable price, it should be worth seeking out once released.
Espresso, black cherries, licorice, tobacco, and floral notes already pop in the nose. On the palate the wine is forward, round, and bright, with loads of currants and a salty edge in the dark, fruity, energetic finish. Drink from 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot.
