Just opened this. One can tell this will be a journey. I would only open this if you have at least 2-3 hours to Taste it. It’s all over the place on open. Basically tastes like if Ziereisen made wine in the mountains.

Nose is dense but has that alpine thing you get from like savoie. Very pretty. Almost intoxicating. Like a field of flowering cherry trees on top of a mountain.

Palate is very bright. Sweet cherry fruit.

A 9.5 easy on open. I’m guessing this will be better as it airs and integrates.

As this opens holy fuck. Nose is alpine with some gevrey spice. Palate is rubber made from grape vines (I know impossible), cherry. Rich. Elegant Cherry extract. Just a kiss of bitterness. Wowowowowo. So elegantly rich. Unbelievable.

Tannins are really smooth now, wine is super round and balanced. Classic red aromas, wood, spice. Luscious chocolate and a hint of red fruit, cedar box, tobacco. Really great wine now, drinking much better than when I first tried it 6+ years ago. Well done Walla Walla. — 2 years ago

Intense SuperTuscan wine made from Sangiovese and Malvesia nera. Dark red fruits, some notes of plum and deep, well integrated tannins that give it great structure. Plenty of acidity to stand up to our Basel tomato soup and made it a great pairing. — 4 years ago

Claret style from Walla Walla. Expressive, robust and complex. Had the appropriate amount of dark fruit and just enough spice to keep it interesting. Thoroughly enjoyable. — 5 years ago

The grand finally of the evening was the full bodied Cab with multiple layers of dark, dry earthy fruit soaked in tobacco chocolate and fine, well integrated tannins that create a sensational finish. Paired with bbq lamb chops marinated in olive oil infused with rosemary, Basel, black pepper, garlic and sea salt. Heavenly! — 3 years ago

You can always appreciate a wine that once decanted will evolve over a 3 to 4 hour period like this wine will do. Great fruit flavors with subtle tannins, great showing Washington. — 7 years ago
