Soaring nose of wet earth, sour cherries, wild spices, sweet blackberries, mint, and just superbly aromatic. Palate is super precise, loaded with sweet/sour cherry fruit and loads of crunchy minerality. Stunningly pure and deep. Terrific length. Will age wonderfully.

Jan 12th, 2019Nose is weird off the bat. VA? That is a stank for sure. Under that brambley red fruits. Earth and mineral. Weird. Palate is sweet, dense and energetic with good sap, red fruits, spice and structure. Very fresh. Hopefully that off aroma goes away. 9.3 palate. 8.7 nose.
NOSE UPDATE - soaring stanky deep black cherries. Mixed with spice. Needed 3 hours to blowoff.

Aug 2nd, 2017Always the most tannic, deeply fruited and needs 5-6 years. Barnyard poop infused red fruits and mineral. Complex and mineral. Juicy and fresh.

Very bright cherry notes throughout. Overwhelming on the palate almost sweet. Good acidity. Limited if any secondary characteristics. At the moment all morello cherries and nothing else and in my opinion this is it 😴😴😴. Simply not enough to rate this high.
