It’s got the sooty, fire pit minerality that announces Walla Walla, along with sweet dark cherry and blackberry fruit and some sweet baking spice. Mouthfilling and rich, with ripe dark berry fruit augmented by savory notes. Loads of tacky tannin but fairly low acids indicate that this is probably for drinking over the next few years.

Nov 29th, 2019Smells of fruit grown in gravel.
Loud blueberries, cran Pom grape good, clean, smooth, mouthfeel and wonderfully light heft. A whole lot bouncing around in this wine. The acid oak balance is strikingly harmonious.
Lingering blue fruit skin. A good one to watch the latest GOT with.

1 person found it helpfulJul 14th, 2014Traditional red blend of Merlot, Cab Sauvignon, Malbec, and Cab Franc. Fresh and vibrant, offering distinctive floral, white pepper, and tamarind overtones to the dark berry flavors, mingling on a well-balanced finish
