Wonderfully heave chocolate notes and spice on the front. Very smooth finish.

Still a little tight, but with great blackberry and stone fruit. Also some flinty pencil lead.

Color of dark yet saturated ruby, quite bloody. Nose of chocolate, ripe cherry, sweet sugarplum, ripe fresh grape, a bit mineral, strength of alcohol, and a bit sweet oak. Taste of mineral, sweet raisins and sugarplum, oak, more oak, a bit dill, soft tannins, mouthful, and alcohol content is high yet hidden below the sweetness. Aftertaste follows similar note, with tannins, dill clove notes, and mineral note stand out more. Medium long. Enjoy her now.

The 2014 is out! Rich, juicy, and palate coating. Blackberry pie and chocolate flavors. Thick and velvety. One to drink now and not for cellaring. Will be a crowd-pleaser. High QPR.

Great value! This had tons of fruit and was very smooth. We’ll be looking for this again!

Balanced with a rich fruit forward flavor... with smooth tannins and aromas of plum and spice
