Vintage 2017 - Tasting beautifully right now. Fine pedigree fruit balanced by great acid holding it together for the long term. By far perennially one of the best bottlings in the Three Stocks portfolio. Tasted April 2022.

We were told it can age 15-20 years, so this very drinkable wine with a great blend of fruits should become even more interesting with time

A silky, lively, medium-bodied wine. Raspberries, strawberries, cherry cola, and a hint of vanilla.

Really hasn’t changed much, dark fruit, big body, great spice with a pepper finish IMO!

Dark fruit, lots of spice and pepper on the nose, great acid and a blackberry finish IMO!

Great recc @C. Cole Spicy, implementing Pinot. Drinkable early but should have saved for later. Tasted great even two days after opening.
