I don’t usually rate wines this high but this wine was over the top. Great blue and black fruit, dark chocolate, cassis with acid and tannins in perfect harmony. Really nice red belly wash. — 7 years ago

Deep garnet. Oak and dark fruit on the nose. Hour decant and still a bit tight but yet still very smooth and well structured. Red and black fruit. Tannins silky smooth with nice long finish. Beautiful wine! After another hour this wine was hitting its stride! So good!! — 3 years ago

Elegant rose that doesn’t show its 15.1% alcohol. Light potpourri with tons of flowery tones. — 6 years ago

This wine is super refined and elegant. The amount of acid was noticeable at this point - and the tannins are strong even after a four plus hour decant. This is one for the long haul. It was cool to taste this side by side with the ‘12 vintage as well as next to the ‘12 regular Estate. All so different yet all so good. Such wonderful wines it’s sad they’re no longer making them. — 8 years ago
