Dark fruit and sweet spice notes. Well balanced. — 5 years ago
Compared with a note of almost two years ago, this one has done some substantial growing up. Medium-plus density wine. Poured very dark to the glass with a faint hint of violet. The nose is brambly Blackberry, chocolate, and sweet tobacco. This wine sort of seems to have a munch rounder profile through the front and middle.
Black fruit front with a hint of cigar Ash and sweet pipe tobacco. Middle is darker. Dark chocolate notes with a much more mature profile. Still a fair amount of tannin and soil terroir on the finish. A very lovely wine that really shows well with only 5 to 10 minutes of air. This one isn't getting any better in the bottle, so drink up! — 7 years ago

LOVE this wine. Heavy dried fruits on the nose, charcoal, cigar, white pepper. Full bodied, dark red, velvet mouthfeel. Tastes meaty. Purchased the 2013 from the Livingston wine shop. — 6 years ago
