Decent complexity for the price point -- surprising! Spiced violets romance chassis and blackberries in a marriage sealed in homebaked pie. Soft licorice rounds the jam on these crusty pastry edges. Likey!

You know, this isn't half bad. Dried raspberry, sour cherry and green pepper notes. Drying tannins with a medium finish.

Spicy with hickory smoke and brambles, with hints of black cherries. Meaty and heavy with umami, creme de cassis, blueberries, and dark cherries come through. Highly tannic and structured, nevertheless a nice introduction to this region! #wineandpuppies

Toasted vanilla bean meets red raspberry. Medium length on finish. Smooth tannins with subtle earthy undertones.

At 9 years of age this wine is aged beautifully into a plush, velvety red wine with sweet plum and dry cherry notes.

Good vintage of this. Somewhat lean and candied raspberry/black cherry fruit, warm clay, Violets, garrigue, Green pepper. Lighter than expected from the vintage.

Black cherry, blueberries, cassis. Masculine wine with intense tannins & acidity. This wine will improve with cellaring.
