Grapes from small Paso Robles AVAs blocks, aged in 75% new oak for 18 mos. Dark Ruby, aromas of sweet ripe black fruits, smoky tobacco and pepper spices. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with herb, cacao, espresso and vanilla oak, after it opened up. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, cacao, vanilla and earthy herbs. Good but let this age for a couple of years.

Jan 10th, 2025Nice tannins and some strong ruby fruit.
Not digging the super oak… sweetness… and strong clove / allspice direction. I’m sure others do, but not for me.
Wish I cellared this… maybe then…
