Always delicious. Blind, would've called modern Brunello; ripe red fruit, orange zest w enough lift to keep it flexible at the table

Interesting as always. Too many layers and flavors to list.

Shy at first, but opened up nicely over an hour- good balance. Shows mostly sangio with the body of a pinot, but you can definitely pick out the other varietal flavors in this as well.. Fun bottle- good QPR.

Nice wine but overrated. Lots of cherries and berries. Some baking space, cloves and earth balance it out.

Sean Thackrey, you devil. Light, berries, subtle earth notes. Dare I say, new fave?

Oh man, this is my kind of red, ie it doesn't need a plate of lasagne to be drinkable. Cherries n berries but not too sweet or overwhelmingly fruity. Plus Sean Thackery is a big Marin weirdo :)

Always a fun wine. Who else could get away with a Sangiovese, Viognier, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Mourvèdre + who knows what else blend, let alone make it shine?
