Expected this to be past its prime but it was not. Deep, brooding nose of dark fruits. The tannins were polished and resolved but it certainly was in a good drinking window. A joy to drink.

From the vineyard at the end of the street. I think I sold this back when it was current release. Great spot in St Helena!

Relaxing by myself tonight - good but busy weekend - so enjoying one that I had previously but want it to be better and it was - decanted two hours - having pizza - ripe dark red color with ripe dark fruits of blackberries plums and great smooth tannins with balanced acidity - drink now even though this little winery designed to age up to 20 years and seems to be aging correctly - smiling and relaxing

Ripe, round, dark fruit and elegant without a whole lot of complexity. Easy drinker

Nicely aged and smooth. Carmel, and dark fruit predominate with cocoa notes.

Was planning on opening two of these but the first one was partially corked. This one was excellent- close to if not at its peak.
