Really pretty. Violets, cherry, mushroom, cola and nice acid. Great balance. Went great with some Alaskan(Doug)salmon. Yum!

Solid. Nicely made GC with the dark fruits and structure one would expect. Found it very approachable with layers of earth, animal, and minerals on the the nose framing the fleshy and upfront fruit on the palate.

Light ruby color; crushed pre-ripe strawberries, hint of forest-farm aromas and delightful flowery perfume; medium-high acids and red fruits dominate the palate along with oak-hints and a rough unbalanced yet long and not unpleasant finish. Not a typical GC for sure and adequately priced. Had with Jan Lundgren jazz trio on vinyl.

For a 2014 this still had so much youth to it, a bit reductive, struck flint but still fresh berries on the front.

Slighty jammy bright burgundy. Tiny earthiness.
