All I wanted to drink all night with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella & pizza. Lots of wet earth/upturned soil/underbrush stuff (pastures, orchards, woodlands) happening on the nose. Rich balsamic/tomato paste/umami mid-palate. Baked / dried / brandied cherry finish. Soft tannins. Acid has mellowed out a bit but is still ⚡️ — 2 years ago

A delightful BDX blend from Yakima. Cab Franc (and one of the rare domestic cab franc expressions that doesn’t disappoint) leads on the nose. Tannins really fine and well-integrated. Relatively light and elegant on the palate. Cedar, black cherry, black currant, Merlot’s red plumminess peaking through, cigar box, gravel and all sorts of upturned earth. Still singing on night 3. Remind me to drink more WA blends. — 3 years ago

Ready for action, and then some. Showing her age for the first 30 in the glass, then started hitting (sweetly) with spring florals, fresh tobacco leaf and dark brambles on the nose; balsamic, currants, grapefruit rind, sweet balsa in the mouth. Tannins mellow, but widened and amplified over the hour. More tobacco, leather, white cedar as we drained it; not a whisper of solids, bottle upturned and super enjoyed. #blamedavid — 10 years ago
