Lightly perfumed with mandarin orange and white peach. Dry and fuller bodied, with straw, apple, lemon zest, and good acidity.

Tasted blind. Warm, sweet nose, with potpourri and a touch of brown sugar. Medium plus body. Tart red cherry, but still quite elegant. Lots of acid and tannin on the finish. Young, but showing nicely. 92+

Tasted blind. Bright fruit, burnt rubber, and some funk on the nose. I found this a bit astringent, with big, burly tannins. Certainly more "classic" in structure, but perhaps in a slightly awkward place right now?

Tasted blind. Sweet, dark fruit, with dark chocolate and orange on the nose. Dense and lush, this is a big wine. With chewy tannins and a drying finish, this has the structure to age for a while. Well put together, if a bit young and tight.

Tasted blind. Wood, spice, and leather on the nose. Red and black fruit, with medium-plus weight. Lots of chewy tannins and acid to finish. Nice, but definitely needs time and/or food!

Tasted blind. Huge nose. Intense, with big, sweet, black fruit. Dense, with sweet black fruit and spice on the palate. So lovely and elegant, with a lengthy finish of fine tannins and balanced acidity. A bit more modern in style, it's enjoyable now but should improve with time.

Tasted blind. A little green, with pond water -- though showing more warm spice as it opens. Soft and light, with red cherry and raspberry. Nicely balanced with fine tannin.

Absolutely lovely. The nose is intense, with honey and apricot. Perfectly balanced, with a nice sweetness but enough acid to keep it clean and not at all cloying. Nutty, with almonds, apricot, peach, honey, and kumquat. Great complexity.

Bright and lively nose reminds me of peaches and cream. Great density, with apricot, honey, pineapple, and some tropical fruit. Excellent balance with great acidity, overall very pretty and elegant. It's approachable now, but still very young. Great potential.
