8/11/2022 - #1 or #2? Likes this wine: 90 pointsdark and opaque. bouquet is rich and fruity, jammy, vanilla, with some flinty and dusty notes. palate is big, bold, juicy, full bodied. some mild acidity still hanging around to prevent it from coming off too flabby with some welcome tannin on the close. this is full throttle stuff, fully mature and ready to drink. |

2/18/2022 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 89 pointsRetail $30. Heavy Bottle. While I do not know for sure, since the tech sheet on this wine does not offer any insight, I think there might be some Petite Sirah in this wine (although I could be wrong) as it is fairly dark in the glass, has a near overload of fruity blackberry on the nose, and the Mettlers grow a ton of PS. Just a hunch. As I said, quite fruity on the nose, with tons of berry fruit (mostly black), a hint of vanilla, loads of coffee, and a touch of spice. The palate is much of the same, although the fruit is more in balance with added depth and more of that spice. Don't get me wrong, though, this is a fun, fruity wine that is best with tacos, barbecue, or a back patio. |

1/27/2022 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 90 pointsRetail $25. Big. Ass. Bottle. This is now the third iteration of this wine that I have tried and while the bottle has not become any lighter, the wine has remained rather stellar. Fairly dark in the glass (which makes me suspect there is some Petite Sirah here), with loads of fruit and spice. The palate is likely a Zinfandel lover's dream, with wave after wave of fruit, a zingy acidity, and a more than admirable finish. |

11/25/2021 - lemerick Likes this wine: 91 points2nd of six bottles opened. This one more enjoyable than the first. Seems like it's starting to come into its own although still has a lot of room to grow. Rich jammy fruit, generous oak and plenty of grippy tannin. |
