All biodynamic which is quite impressive. The nose shows notes of extremely ripe black fruits (blueberries, blackberries, plums, currants) spice, oak, vanilla, sweet tobacco. On the verge of jammy but still has structure. — 11 years ago
Massive, powerful but balanced. Mountain Dry Creek fruit. Still got some time but drinking really well — 11 years ago
Excellent wine. Beautiful floral notes and black fruits on the nose. Beautiful balance with mildly rustic tannins, balanced acidity, and beautiful fresh fruit. The tannins verge on grippy and balance out a wet earth minerality. Really enjoyable. — 11 years ago
I was prepared to be underwhelmed, but this is really damn good. Sous bois, cranberry & pomegranate fruit, a bit of stems, and some oak on the verge of disappearing. — 12 years ago
Burleed pineapple, white peach and apricot. Viscous on the verge of syrupy but the acidity keeps it lively. Decades of life ahead — 10 years ago
1996 vintage. Great wine. Good primary fruits. But complex. Nice finish. On the verge of excellence. — 10 years ago
On the verge of greatness. — 11 years ago

On the verge of being too ripe, this is youthful with black balsamic fruits dominating the aroma and taste. A nice mouthful of wine; and will improve further over time. — 10 years ago
