Big, but elegant. Dark fruit, briar and field spice, hot-acidity, blood orange, dry tannins.

Dark fruit but has mellowed over the years or “softened “ definite tobacco and licorice hints and great earth tones but time to drink IMO!

As expected, the Russian River is bolder and more concentrated than the Carneros. Both delicious, but I prefer Carneros.

Weekend in San Jose for the Queen concert!! Enjoying a pinot and the pool! Pop and pour (young...would of loved a few more years on the bottle). A fascinating dark ruby red. On the nose: red fruit, plum, vanilla, olives. Taste: bright red cherry, spice, herbs, some chocolate...nice concentration and finish with a little tannic kick.
