Deep ruby color, smells of mushroom, wet soil and some smoke. Smooth tannins, medium acid. Tastes of mushroom, mild pepper, earthy with deeply hidden cherry. — 7 months ago
Brisk acidity balanced by stone fruit’s, mineral, and hints of sherry — 21 days ago
Terribly well balanced, and opens up wonderfully. — a month ago
Fine and attractive, has a lovely approachability in its supple fruit, pliant tannin, and ripe texture. Despite the vintage character, there’s nice balance here with good freshness and aromatics. Black cherry, slightly roasted, plum, spicecake, sweet meat, sous bois, wilted flowers, balsam, rosemary and licorice. Minimal racking, probably a fine call for ‘18 — 5 months ago
