I have been following this wine for years! This is the best wine Mark Haisma makes. This is so rich in flavor it blows your mind. Ok back to the basics. Almost no nose slight dark cherry. Very brought shouldered big wine masculine. Blackberry mulberry sage cappuccino? This is a pricy bugger!
120$ Still I would buy it and put some bottles away. — 10 years ago

The Megan Anne Cellars ‘Black Love’ Pinot Noir is a barrel selection wine sourced from both the Lachini and Nysa Vineyards. The wine saw some extensive oak treatment (16 months 60% new French oak) prior to bottling. There are lighter oaky tones on the nose that connect with dark fruits and tobacco leaf with damp earth. The palate shows good weight and freshness with black tea, blood orange, peat moss and cherry vanilla flavors. I really love the range here. While this is drinking marvelously now, the wine will cellar well for a decade or more. Drink 2018-2030- 93 — 6 years ago
Exceptional. Nice strawberry with hints of watermelon. The slight acid back one holds things together nicely. — 7 years ago
Toffee and brown sugar, almost candied fruits. Mid-palette to the finish is a bit one dimensional, but a great go-to bourbon. — 7 years ago

2012 vintage. Wow...now this is a serious wine. Deep in dark fruit and terrior flavors and a fair share of tannins. This was pure heaven with a barbequed rib eye steak. Another of those wines that I keep on the shelf because they are bound to be wonderful when opened but I want to keep them as long as possible for slight aging. But I never buy enough soon enough before the sell out. Mark Ryan makes seriously wonderful wines and this is surely one of them. — 9 years ago
