Tasting notes
Attractive red and black fruits, graphite, iron, and barbeque smoke notes all emerge from the 2020 Tapestry Reserve, a medium to full-bodied, nicely balanced, pure red that has plenty of up-front charm and character. It has some of that very subtle iron/smoky character on the back of the palate, but it's barely noticeable, and this is a 2020 that will clearly offer pleasure.

The 2020 Red Wine Tapestry Reserve is an attractive, succulent blend with a core of juicy red cherry, red plum, spice, new leather and cedar. A bit more Malbec in the blend adds lovely fruit purity and juiciness. Soft, supple and easygoing, the 2020 is a pretty charming wine in this difficult vintage.
The 2020 Tapestry Reserve Red Wine is slightly pungent, with overtones of smoked meat, torrefaction and dark fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, richly textured and velvety in feel but with a hint of acridness on the finish. Drink it young.
