What a pleasant treat! Smooth, acidic, dark fruit notes. Fairly jammy, but not overly! Wonderful!

Never disappointed when I open a Brian O’Donald created wine. This 2010 is a classic with time to continue its journey to perfection. Big fruit that is balanced and not overwhelming in anyway. Delightful!

2010 may not be the best year. Not bad, but lighter than expected. Wouldn't rule out drinking again, but not my first choice

Better than the Ayers. Had at Blue Fin NYC. Still light on the oak and tannin but reasonable body.
