December 5, 2018 - PnP. Nose has a little bit Rhône funk which does not show up on the palate. The palate has a great array of cherry fruit mixed with spice and subtle tannins. Drinking ranges say drink up but I think this still has some time.

March 6, 2016 - On PnP, this had an enticing aroma of red fruit and flowers but was harsh on the palate. With 90 minutes of air, it was red fruit and heavy spice with a little bit of funk.

November 25, 2015 - I liked this more on night two after VinVac. With 90 minutes of air, this opened up with red fruit and spice but nothing really stands out.
