December 25, 2016 - Coming into a good drinking window. Nose shows peppery, raspberry and a meaty note. Palate is opening to show a pretty red fruit with white pepper and a smokey bacon note. The finish is satisfying.

July 8, 2016 - Very impressive Rhône blend. Rustic, balanced with beautiful earthy tones and great acidity. Very good, worth every penny!

May 30, 2015 - rating may be enhanced by watching my Lightning knock the Rangers out of the playoffs last night, but this went nicely with Ribs, good body & depth, comparable to some of my favorite 2010s
