Great structure and body. Elegant. Tannins were very present, but fleeting. That wave of almond finish left my mouth salivating. — 9 years ago

Great for its youthfulness. Would benefit from another year or two in the cellar. — 6 months ago

Wow. Big fan. Lots of bright red fruits like cherries and raspberries in the beginning. Great acidity. It is more earthy than I expected, but not unwelcome. I really appreciated the almost floral/rosy note that contrasts the brightness off the bat. Still pretty tannic, I imagine this would only get better with age. Tasted expensive. I have no clue how much it costs. Only improved with time/air as we ate dinner. Super cool to taste how it “opened up” and how it changed. — 6 months ago

Medium ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, raspberry, violets and baking spices. Really like this wine, very nice tannins, berries on the palate, oak on the finish. — 8 days ago
