Deep Ruby with a blend of Cab Sauv, Merlot & Petit Verdot, aged 21 mos new French oak, aromas of aromas of black and blue fruits with herb spice and earthy floral notes. On the palate blueberry, blackberry and plum flavors with cacao, leather and espresso. Firm tight tannins, well balanced, integrated nicely with toasty oak, long finish ending with fruit, spice and creamy earthy character.

Jan 3rd, 2021Just overpowering and surprisingly just too much for me, perhaps an end-of-night thing. It made the Command seem laid back.

Mar 24th, 2019My first turns two and we decided to have a little pre-party this weekend. The merlot is singing on this. I wish I bought more, and will seek more on the auction market. It is a big, fat, unapologetic monster of a wine.

Mar 13th, 2018It probably was at peak a couple years ago; it is still holding together fairly well but fraying a bit around the edges. Nice, but not stunning.

May 25th, 2017I think I could pick this out of a lineup. Earthy, blue/black fruit in bunches make this one you want to keep drinking. Chewy mouthfeel and nice acidity once it has time
