Third wine at The Great Falls Wine Outlet this Friday. Medium to dark ruby red. Dusty and earthy on the nose to start with some dark fruits on the backend. Medium tannins (6/10) and medium to medium plus bodied. A bit vegetal on the palate, also green and a little metallic. Needs to wear off. Some red cherries underneath with a punch of acidity after the mid palate. Long finish with a bit much acidity and heat. Drink till 2025.

A group of guys decided to meet up at our Wine Storage facility and bust out some unique bottles! Scores and notes to follow!

I've been fortunate to have this before, but this time, I was able to enjoy it more. Lots of walnut and nutmeg on the nose. Great Coombsville-esque body to it that balance dark fruits and tart notes. A phenomenal '07 that doesn't lean towards herb and earthy notes but balances fruit nicely. Thanks Weston!

Big dense dark fruit with notes of dark chocolate. Reasonably well balanced with a long finish.

Voluptuous, silky, smooth and round. Cigar wrapper, on the nose. Blackberry with chocolate wood spice on the palette. Lingering, polished, classic, old world finish. A true delight! Thank you for sharing Claire Lee!!!

Lean, controlled, balanced, super seductive. This is a damned good wine no doubt. Classy stuff.
