Medium ruby in color, this time punches above its color. Vibrant aromas of wild berries, cassis and vanilla are mixed with savory herbs and saddle leather. The texture is soft, full and concentrated; big dark fruit and a tinge of that famed Rutherford dust linger on the silky finish. — a month ago

Bright salmon color. Racy aromas of acacia flowers, cantaloupe and citrus. Beams of peach, blood orange and strawberries are carried by a well balanced acidity. Lighter than I would have expected. It closes taut with a mineraly echo. — a month ago

Inky black and highly extracted. Blackberry, licorice and mocha ooze from the glass. Layer upon layer of black fruit, garigue spices, penetrating minerality stitched together with piercing acidity. The ripe, juicy, thick fruit laden with a glycerin like weight hammer home an inexplicably long finish. #pasorobles #grenache #wine #wineporn — 3 years ago

Inky dark purple. I concentrated aromas of cola, blackberries and sage. Intense flavors of ripe fig, leather and raspberry rounded out with licorice, roasted plum and white pepper. Texture is fat, round and soft on the finish, almost floating along the tongue. — a month ago

Deep ruby/purple in the glass. Powerful aromas of dark chocolate, violet and cassis are layered with black currant and plums. The medium plus acidity drives the lush ripe fruit in the midpallet, centered around wildflowers, baking spice and dark berries. The finish is long with polished tannins and a touch of tobacco. — a month ago

Big powerful and intense. Dark only purple from core to rim; explosive nose of ripe black and blue fruit with hints of smoke, coffee and cloves. Full bodied and concentrated with black currant and blubbery compote up front and roasted fig, toffee and caramel on the mid pallet. Finish is long, dense and with silky soft tannins. The acididy is off the charts but the ballance is amazing. Would love to revisit in 20 years!!! — 2 months ago
