July 18, 2015 - Simply beautiful. Dark cherry, cedar, anise flavors fill the palate with firm tannins. Excellent balance not over oaky with very nice fruit. I think this is aging beautifully and has a few more years yet to go.

June 28, 2015 - Classic aromas of red fruits, cigar box and spice, followed by a seamless & silky mid-palate rich with raspberry, cherry and spice flavors that hold on the finish.
