After all these years still a beast. Tannins more reasonable, bacon, confit prunes, garigue.

Very similar to the Alder Springs Cuvée from Mendocino but with a slightly harder edge. A lovely fragrance like the Alder Springs with Black cherries and Bacon. Some Barnyard but no Brett. Again, the cork broke in half raising issues of storage. Still an enjoyable wine.

Big, super rich style from a different chapter. Still delish - flamboyant and showy with cassis, charcoal, stewed meat, and roasted marrow bone. Glad I got to try, but think I'll go home and have a bottle of Wind Gap!

Wonderful aromas of smoked sage and savory spice with black currents in very nice balance. For a modern style wine, a lovely effort.
