Something very clean and elemental about this wine, and something Bordelaise as well, given the depth, lack of California over-ripeness and relative inaccessibility in youth. Not an "easy" wine, but neither is young Lynch Bages. — 7 years ago

All red mountain fruit lovely intensity and elegant bouquet a bit of cf and merlot in the blend both red and black berry fruit with pretty floral notes with dark chocolate and sweet tobacco spice. Very lush and forward fruit here with a nice freshness not a big wine in color or size but had lots of nuance fresh earth and light spice notes this wine needs a bit of time but has all the right pieces in place. Finish 45+. Excellent milk chocolate notes — 10 years ago

Dark profile and quite Old World in style. Not sure if this is aged in oak, but tastes like there might be a bit there, it's good. — 7 years ago

The few times that I have tasted this producer, I found their wines “simple”. This was not, and I’d be happy to retaste this wines in 5 years time. Very young still. — 6 years ago
