Surprising amount of energy and lift for a wine of this type, still full bodied but leans more towards a medium red than heavy. Very soft tannins, blackberry forward with some plum, blueberry, a bit of raspberry & floral notes and cedar — 2 days ago
Had this 2019 gifted to me. Had it with a charcoal grilled tri-tip and it went perfectly. Rich, velvety with concentrated blackberry. Nicely structured, big but not heavy in any way. — 23 days ago
Deep Ruby red color with aromas of dark fruits, smoke and earthy herbs. On the palate flavors of blackberry, currants, black cherry, smoky tobacco and leafy herbs. Fine polished tannins, long finish ending with fruit, tobacco, spice and earthy mineral notes. — 23 days ago
Aroma good. Aged, liquor like.

The nose on this is stunning. Big and black fruit with a dollop of tar. The pallete follows the nose with blackberries, plum, dusty rock, and dark soil. An enjoyable balance of fruit and earth. Steak wine! This is excellent.
