December 29, 2023 - A good Washington red blend that is not in the elite caliber in terms of elegance, depth, or length. But still a very pleasant expression of red fruit rhubarb and tobacco. A bit of bubblegum too. Unremarkable finish with some heat from the alcohol.

November 30, 2022 - Solid blend with good acidity that is pretty food friendly. But it had some bitterness on the finish that detracted. Remaining bottles should hold for 2-3 years, so will see if this smooths out some

July 10, 2020 - Day 1: Very nice wine with raspberries, soy, earth, floral and dark chocolate. Medium finish and balanced. 92 points
Day 2: Coming together even better than day 1. Fruit more prominent featuring blueberries, raspberries and plum. Also floral, mild soy and chocolate. Medium plus finish and overall nice complexity. One of the better SOH wines I have sampled in some time. 93 points
Day 3: A bit tired from day 1 and 2 with some sour cherry, earth, funk and chocolate. Just lacks the intensity of day 2. 88 points
Recommendation: Best on day 1 and 2. Probably one hour decant and should drink well through 2024.1 person found this helpful Comment -

May 19, 2019 - Deep purple/red color. Aromas of black fruits, dried herbs and wood spices. Ripe, full-bodied fruit in the mouth with very good depth and length and well-integrated tannins. Juicy and supple on the palate. Delicious now.
