Happy Birthday Neal! Big...bold...there’s depth that intrigues and the 15.2% is well hidden...but gosh...it’s a bit clunky. I dunno if it’s worth the tariff? Drank next to a 2014 Adaptation which was about its equal. — 7 years ago

I’m waiting for the television adaptation of this wine wherein the main character, the assertive anti-hero is a bionic frog named Syrah and wears a black synthetic cape that smells a bit like oranges. — 6 years ago

Nose: some vegetal. Very Floral.

Palate: somewhat muted cherry fruit. Well done. Night tautness. Grippy. — 5 months ago

Dark purple, blackberries, anise, and cloves. Five spices. Full of lush flavor with a bite of tannins. The finish lingers and is pleasant. — 4 years ago

The end of an era....still enjoying my last allocations from Hartwell. Will enjoy the new adaptation in Realm. Hard not to drink entire bottle. Big and bold and fruity. Great finish. — 7 years ago
