This should have a couple of more points because it was singing towards the end of the night. We just didn't open it up early enough.

Finished with this beauty and it was spectacular. So balanced and subtle yet powerful. Keep rockin' it Todd!

This wine is spectacular and, sadly, my last bottle. Blueberries, cassis, dark chocolate, and violets. Superbly integrated and extremely elegant. Todd Newman really produces amazing wines.

Tons of fruit with soft tannins. I would drink sooner as I don’t believe there is enough tannin and acid to carry this much further
