Gorgeous, fruit forward nose. Drinking at cellar temp, the wine shows great definition. Light to medium body, moderate acid, moderate to low tannins. Cherry, strawberry, lemon, a bit of stem.

Tanic and flavorful. Like a rich, red meat sauce. Reminds me of the vadalia, bacon, mushroom mixture in a wine. Would be good with grilled, buttered and salted corn.

Slight hints of deep fruit on the nose, full mouth of grape riddled forest floor, some spice transitions to a delicate finish.... nice

Well balanced black tea, orange peel and graphite riding on smooth berries. This shows a bit of the heavy acid that the 2013 vintage suffers from, but this is a nice wine that would benefit from a little time in the bottle. In another year or two, this will be a rustic joy!

A beautiful wine with great complexity and layering. A great nose as soon as you open the bottle rounds to a strong finish with smokiness and spice completing the journey.
