Wonderful with ripe red fruits, balanced by juicy acidity.

My last bottle of the wine that introduced me to Helen's wines. Aromas of herbs, lavender, fall leaves, and smoked meat. Savory black fruit, black olives, and a smooth tannic finish. So sad that I don't have any more.

Complex and layered with sage, lavender and clove. Time reveals concentrated fleshy blackberry and wet stones. What a treat. Glad I have one more of these.

Holy black tea Batman! Dark cherries and strawberries. Mushroom. Leather. Dried orange peel. And more black tea. Brooding, but still bright.

Mar 29th, 2014Very much shut down at the moment; nose ain't revealing much, apart from some positive red berries and floral notes. Youthful, structured and beautifully balanced on the palate, this medium-bodied, chalky flavored and stem-infused red will last easily another 15 years.
