Dark ruby color. Deep aromas of dried cherries, prunes, orange zest, tobacco and leather. The bold palate features dried dark cherries, ripe plum, black currant, coffee, mint, baking spices and vanilla. Long and velvety finish. Very concentrated and bold yet the tannins and texture are quite soft. Fresh acidity and wonderful balance. Full bodied and lush. Excellent! Thanks for the bottle, Kase! — a month ago

This was a fantastic wine. Nose is hard to discern. But after a 30 min decant, the wine opens beautifully to ripe blue fruit, blackberry and hints of red fruit. Lovely mouthfeel. Just easy drinking, great ripe fruit forward wine. I see why JS gave it a 99. Loved it! — a month ago

Hot nose, big floral, fat berry, tar, chocolate. Medium dry tannins, lots of oak, takes away a bit from the fruit. Tight. Needs to breathe. I’ll wait to score. After two hours it’s put on weight. Fruit came out and tannins became well integrated. I’d have given it a 87-88 on opening but now it’s a solid 92. — 2 months ago
