Another great last minute gathering at the storage facility!

My first time having a wine from Kenefick Ranch vineyard. I know Mike Smith has utilized this vineyard for Scarlett and maybe another label. Killer black fruits and a soft, plush, plummy finish. Not harsh in any way. Full bodied and doing well with a decant.

v13. Fantastic! Soft white pepper nose. Juicy, rich, round black fruit medley. Long, velvet, slightly astringent chocolate and soft leather finish. Consistently outstanding wines.

Initial impression of sweet blueberry. After an hour of decanting more savory notes emerge. Rich full body w long finish. Could use another 2-5 yrs
