A little muddy. Not a lot of fruit, and some fairly gritty tannins. Hold for now.

Dec 31st, 2015Huge. If this is 13.5 ABV, I'm the Pope. That said, the whole cluster is integrating nicely and after a couple hours in the decanter, this rounds into balance.

Jun 8th, 2015This is beautiful. The nose lasts long and smells thick with rose, dry dirt, potpourri, dark ripe fruit. There’s still pretty grippy tannin structure and acidity that makes your mouth salivate and desire more. The rose really comes out on the palate, maybe a touch of lavender, moist funky dirt, ripe mulled blackberries. The finish is long. The ripeness of the blackberry really hits right at the finish and hangs on. Give this a bit of a decant, at least 30 minutes. I want more, but have none.

Apr 20th, 2020It could sit a bit longer but ever last sip was enjoyed. A dirty Pinot noir that has great earthy tones, muddy some may say with a short finish. My last bottle, will be hunting out more.
