  September 1, 2021 - First 60 minutes this puppy was tight/tannic. Really no fruit showing. Wifey and I left it alone for 45 minutes. After that it was pretty good. Got the Petite Sirah and Tannat flavors. Decant at least 90 minutes is the lesson.

  April 6, 2020 - Good wine, ready to drink, not stunning and certainly not living up to the reputation of the winery. Not a great QPR.

  December 15, 2019 - Slo-oxed for 15 minutes, and did not open further during the meal. Some red fruit notes on the nose. The palate yielded red fruit, balancing acidity, and some mineral notes.
  Overall, the wine was a bit underwhelming, as other TNs have mentioned. I expected much more presence from the 70% petite sirah; and from the 14% tannat. Maybe this wine was better when it was younger?? If you have any -- drink up.

  April 6, 2019 - Underwhelming. Decanted for 1.5 hours and fruit was simple in flavor. I expected more from the Petite Syrah. The blend did not complement each other well.
