Medium Ruby with aromas of blue and black berry fruits and oaky spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry, blackberry and currants with floral spice cedar notes. Firm chalky tannins, medium+ finish, good balance ending with a fruit and spice character.

Dtank 3/18/20. Nice with lamb, very nice with smoked sausage.

Scents of blackberry compote and smoke. BlackBerry, leather, and earth dominate the palate, which finishes with raspberry cordial and medium, well integrated tannins on the medium finish.

3/22/8/5/3 +50 =92 pts.

Medium Ruby with aromas of blue/black berry fruits and oaky spice. Palate shows cherry, blackberry and currant flavors with vanilla and floral cedar notes. Firm tannins medium+ finish, ok balance ending with a fruit character. Tasting Sample, ‘17 a bit better than ‘16.

Medium Ruby with aromas of blue/black berry fruits and oaky spice. On the palate black cherry, blackberry and currant flavors with vanilla and floral cedar notes. Tannins are still a bit firm and grippy, medium+ finish, nice balance ending with a fruit and spice character. Tasting Sample.

Moss, underbrush. Savory herbs. Beautiful garnet-ruby hue. Blackberry. Elegant forceful nose. Generous - ripe, rich.

Ripe jammy fruits, not very complex. Easy to drink, but nothing spectacular
