Extremely layered but delicate nose lets you know you are in for a treat. There's no kick of gooseberry or cat pee, funk or wool. Instead, a great balance between the signature gun smoke, flint and lit match, layered with extra clean lemon, lime, and grapefruit. Palate is rich and round, full of citrus fruit and a stream of acidity. — 10 years ago

Floral and cherry with a smooth, dry mouth feel. It's full bodied but not as heavy as a Cab. This wine could stand up to beef or barbecue. — 10 years ago
