Red fruit, spice, tannins integrating but still there. Wonderful spot now, but will certainly last a lot longer. — 3 months ago
Reminded me more of a Willamette Pinot than a traditional Russian River Valley. More earth tones then berry, lighter color but still a high alcohol level. Definitely having again. — 3 months ago

Quite green, but I don’t hate that. — 4 months ago
March 2024. Worth the wait. Bordeaux heaven. Thankfully no green notes in my bottles. — a month ago
Coffee rye with baked, black currants, dried blackberry, cherrywood, cedar, light pepper, potable, African violet, fig, sarsaparilla and thyme. Grippy, grainy tannins awash in tart black cherry, cinnamon and savory. Young and green with tight tart edges, but open just enough to appreciated the complexities. Underrated sleeper vintage that just might come together. Finish is obfuscated at this juncture. Espresso is my guess, though!

2021 vintage. Medium body. Nice depth, focus and concentration during the performance. Hated for the curtain to fall. May need an encore-and soon. More affordable than you suspect. 3.27.24. — 21 days ago
