February 11, 2024 - My last bottle of this wine. Showing very well. Lovely, lifted aromas of red & blue berries, dried herbs and baking spices. Flavors mirror the aromatics. Not the most complex wine but very appealing. There is a density to the fruit without it being overbearing or fatiguing, that I find in Rivers Marie. Still showing supportive acidity and well balanced with a lingering finish. Unabashedly CA PN. Don't be afraid to age these wines, especially the SVDs.

November 9, 2022 - Somewhat cloudy pale color put me of at first, but the great nose gave me hope and the palate confirmed the nose. I really enjoyed it ( my wife did not ). It was a perfect combo of earthiness and cherries. Excellent acidity and long finish. A definite buy for me.
