  November 5, 2018 - Red with an orange rim.
  On the nose dark red cherries, pine, roses, cedar and a hint of petroleum.
  On the palate high acidity, dusty clear tannins, violets, and wild raspberries/strawberry.
  
  Lovely vine, drink now and store. The acidity and tannin structure is there for ageing but the fruit is perfect now.....

  November 5, 2016 - This is too early to drink right now, not giving much, but well balanced structure wise. By comparison, the 2011 was so much more fun last week.
