Nov 20th, 2021We had the 2011 Vintage On 1/1-2/19. Red fruit and rose petals on the bouquet. Raspberry, strawberry, vanilla and oak on the palate. Medium bodied wine, smooth finish, Old World feel.

Mar 18th, 2018Damn my patience, or rather, lack thereof. Dense wine that of course opened up towards the end of the bottle. Cherry and currant with some blue fruit notes. Round and just starting to integrate.
