Raw orange fruit, cherry, a bit of funk. Finish falls off.

first time tasted. Fresh, black fruited, dense on palate & in color. A very good one note which may loosen up within a few years, but guessing not much more left in the tank.

One of the best values around. I don’t know why I want to even alert others to this wine, it will make it more inaccessible, but all I can say: GET IT!

Super mineral - wet sidewalk for days. Quiet black fruit with wet forest floor. Medium tannin, medium+ acid. Needed food to be enjoyed. Sort of nondescript, but serviceable.

Smooth but fruity and delicious. Drinks like a Pinot but hits like a California cab
