September 10, 2018 - Best bottle yet, same it is the last. Nice clear ruby, very open nose with red berries and white pepper, medium body with great balance, nice acidity and long strong finish. Drinking perfectly but would certainly have another 3 to 5 years in it.
October 14, 2016 - Perfect right now.
June 20, 2013 - Light ruby colour, subdued floral and berry nose, cherry and earth taste, medium body and finish, drinking well but will gain with a few more years.
January 21, 2013 - Classic light ruby pinot colour, berry nose, sour cheery taste,nice balance medium finish.
December 26, 2012 - Clear Pale cherry core with a rim verging on amber. Nose is black cherry, earth and oak. Palate has medium tannin, medium + acidity, fresh vibrant black cherry, earth. Developing and can sit for a few years easily. Drinkable now but flavours will develop and integrate with cellaring.
Very pleasant.
December 13, 2012 - - Crimsom color with fast forming legs and aromas of butterscotch, smokey and vanilla and has flavours of rose, vanilla and hazelnut - Nice surprise from the Founder's Club with Opimian Society. Had it with a tomato scallop plate that paired fairly well. I'd suggest that it would pair better with a hardier fish like Halibut or swordfish. Fair light but full of flavour, the nose tricks you a bit with a smoky, carmel vanilla flavour but the taste is full floral, earth taste.
