Fruit-forward Bordeaux. Nose is bright cherry, blackberry, and hints of earthiness. Cassis, dark cherry, blackberry, vanilla, leather, and tart raspberry on the palate. Well balanced. Fully bodied yet supple. Great value. — 6 months ago
Concentrated dark cherry, with undercurrents of blackberry, blueberry, and raspberry. String oak profile softened by vanilla flavors. Has a bit of brambly Zin character, and the robust body of a Syrah. Pretty tasty stuff. — 9 months ago
A little bit tight at first. Black cherry, vanilla, and black pepper. Opens up with some decanting, but I can see this cellaring well for a couple more years to concentrate and find more balance. — 3 months ago
Bright cherry, cranberry, plum, forest floor, a hint of mushroom, and a bit of a leathery note. Supple. Seems slightly unbalanced at times, but paired well with a pan fried salmon. — 5 months ago

Meyer lemon on the nose, with hints of clean minerals. Not the most aromatic wine, so the intensity of the flavor impact surprised me. Big and layered fruit impact (more lemon, stone fruit, and green pear), with a clean mid palate and almost heavy finish. Lots of nice and interesting mineral notes throughout. — 2 months ago
