Bold & deep. A blackberry & leather & smoke. — 7 months ago
Nice dark color, full body, character consistent with story, with smoky notes. Definite repurchase at under $20. — 4 months ago
Color of dark purple. Nose of woody barrel, dark fruits, strength of alcohol, and more oaky note. Taste is smooth and sweet, low tannins, with slightly burn maybe due to being aged in oak barrel. Some more grapefruit, acidity, cocoa, spicy alcohol and sweet ripe fruits in the 2nd sip. Aftertaste definitely shows some warmth in the throat. Quite tasty at this price range. — 3 years ago
Rich stone fruits and Meyer lemon — 5 months ago
Flinty, minerally, salty. Needs more time but a very fine Riesling with a long burn — a year ago
Grapes from small Paso Robles AVAs blocks, aged in 75% new oak for 18 mos. Dark Ruby, aromas of sweet ripe black fruits & dried smoky tobacco spices. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry, blueberry, sweet cacao, espresso & vanilla oak. A big wine, fine tannins, long fruit finish ending with vanilla overwhelming fruit. 15% ABV has slight burn. — 3 years ago
