Once this opened up, it was delicious. Definitely California but very nice balance and structure.

Delicious. Black cherry and chocolate. Got some life left. Took a good hour to open up.

Red fruits run through this wine. Not as complex on the finish as the Rochioli, but is more exciting on the “front end” with delightful, in your face type fruit.
