Feb 19th, 2021The nose reveals; slightly funk, candied and a touch vegetal fruits. Dark cherries, strawberries, cherries and blueberries. Vanilla, touch of crushed rocks, dark, rich soils, steeped fruit tea, touch of caramel and bright red & blue florals.
The body is full and clean. Spice. Candied and a touch vegetal fruits. Dark cherries, strawberries, cherries and blueberries. Vanilla, touch of crushed rocks, dark, rich soils, steeped fruit tea, touch of caramel and bright red & blue florals. The acidity is excellent. The finish is elegant, ripe but has a touch of funk in it.

Jan 8th, 2018Great fruit, good acid. Vanilla and oak spice. Came across a little disjointed and a little hot. I'd love to see this bottle with some more age, it was all right and wound up in its youth.

Dec 12th, 2015Pale ruby with an opaque rim. Extremely aromatic with ripe cherry and eucalyptus bursting from the glass. Juicy and fresh, racy acidity with fine grained tannins. A deft hand with the oak lets the perfumy spices shine through. Long silky finish with a touch of black tea at the very end.
