Always a nice bottle. Ruby color and medium body with blackberry, boysenberry, dark cherry, sour cherry, a bit of licorice and spice. Juicy acidity and a stout tannic backbone. Still time on this one, I think. — 5 years ago

Liked this for the racy acidity, red fruits, black tea, a little tomato leaf and funky earth, all balanced with some stiff tannin. Good pizza wine. — 6 years ago

Apologies for the succulents that appear to be growing in the glass...though there is a hint of green olive/tapenade in this. Tar and strawberry as well. Pretty nice, overall. Thinking would be excellent around 2023. — 6 years ago

Straight from the cellar, nose is somewhat reticent, if a bit floral. Juicy dark cherries, iron, rosemary, earth and spice/white pepper. Medium acidity with just enough tannic backbone to lengthen the finish. — 5 years ago
