My score might be a bit high, but I loved drinking a more affordable version of VHR! Still up there at $125 but it’s half the price of their flagship wine and still has all the charm. — 3 years ago

From young vines (22 years old) in an otherwise very old vineyard site. It’s very good but, of course, lacks the depth of an old vine blend. Very pure and juicy dark berry fruit on the nose, almost like a sugar-glazed berry cobbler. Gorgeous balance in the mouth. Ripe fruit, no jamminess, spritely acids, and some very very soft tannin underneath. Not complex or especially deep, but well made. Great cookout wine! — a year ago

9.1

Dark fruit nose. Nice wine. Black and blue fruit, chalky mouthfeel. Should be good to drink for the next 5-7 years. Will be interesting to see how it evolves, but drinking well now. — a year ago
