Sep 9th, 2016With a little more age this will be fabulous. You can taste the Verdot. I'm thinking lamb or something herby with roasted root veggies. Good option for Thanksgiving 2018.

Jul 18th, 2016Jammy berry smell on the nose, lighter on the tannins that is easy to drink for someone who doesn't necessarily love reds. Acidic on the swish and more medium bodied.
