Beau petit vin avec une robe rubis pâle et claire. Un nez de cerise fraiche et des épices. Une bouche sur les épices, le fruit croquant, des bonbons aux cerises et une touche de chocolat. Une belle finale légèrement piquante. Facile, agréable, juteux et croquant. — 10 months ago

Beautiful acidity and varietal character maybe better than the French — 6 years ago

Planned ahead and got some venison to have with this wine, and the combination sang. Pretty nose. Fruit and tannins that worked oh so well with the food. The few sips one its own were less in balance, but still an enjoyable drink. I recall tasting this upon release - the tannins ripped the roof of my mouth off. Time has been kind to it. Sad, however, to see that The Phantom label has now degenerated to experimental batches. I liked the earlier commitment to the varietal. — 9 years ago

Deep ruby color; black cherries, oak, and blackberry jam on the nose; high acidity; high tannins; tastes like blackberry sauce, sweet tabacco, sassafras(I think), and a hint of camphor with a long fruity finish. It has a little bit of a children's cough medicine flavor at the end. It's not enough to be bad. I really like this wine, but it's enough to knock my rating down a point. — a year ago

2013 Vintage. 14.9% Alcohol. Now we are back on track. Good fruit and acidity. Nice mouthfeel and long finish. Not as big as the Wrath but far better than the Gemtree last night. — 7 years ago

Deep ruby in color; cassis, black cherries, and graphite on the nose; medium plus acidity; medium tannins; tastes like black plums, blackberries, menthol, and wet gravel with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it. I think it's really good. — a year ago

Best wine of the Gemtree range in my opinion. Not what I'd choose to drink a lot of at home but bloody enjoyable none the less. Structured, rich and dry earthiness — 8 years ago
