(wine:  2014 St. Francis Winery Claret, Sonoma County)

-Spacey blueberry rumbles

-Firm posture with charming choir of darker oak, spice, chocolate storms

-Fog, atmosphere, ghost vocals

-Usual music intersection of jazz, rock, ambient, reggae, classical 

-Animated madness in palate’s front and mid that makes the “finish”, as so many obsess over, a crumbled cliff of an afterthought
