This wine was recommended by our waiter after my choice was not available and he hit the mark. A perfect opening for a romantic dinner. Very unique tones with a powerful smell yet smooth and elegant throughout. We loved it! — 4 months ago
Dark Ruby color with aromas of berry fruit with earthy spice tones. On the palate cherry and blackberry flavors with pepper spice, tobacco and cacao on fine dusty tannins. Medium+ finish, nice mouthfeel, ending with fruit and an oak mineral character. — 6 months ago

Powerful wine representative of Margaux - graphite, vanilla, smoke, and dark red and black fruit. Still showing plenty of tannic structure. Lots of cellar life remains for this vintage! — 3 months ago
Beautiful nose on this, remembering why I bought this while in the tasting room in Sta. Rita Hills (nice little spot in Los Olivos, highly recommend). Med+ intensity on the nose with bright cherry and strawberry. A bit of cedar/vanilla, but not much. Floral notes that almost turn to candy or runts. Nice on the palate too with a big pop of red fruit, med+ acidity and nice fine, integrated tannins. Long finish that sort of turns from sweet to tart cherry. Just a really nice wine. I scored a 93 but guessing this will improve and become a bit more elegant with a few more years. — 5 months ago
