Jammy plums, twigs, and gravel. Earthy. Nice with a rich beef stew.

Jammy and well balanced. Hard to hit this level of ripeness with the VA reds.

Lovely black fruit and tobacco, nice woodsy complexity, elegantly textured. Good work. Consulting winemaker Paul Hobbs

Lots of alcohol on the nose but it turned tail on the palate. I remembered this more fondly than it was tonight but still a strong red: tobacco but stronger on the blackberry. Not a bad wine to kick off the fall weather!
