October 3, 2021 - Aroma is raspberry and blackberry. Tannins are very mild. Very round, almost luxurious mouth feel without being flabby. Some black pepper and spice and dark fruits. Drinking very well, but I would drink any bottles left somewhat soon - window may be closing.

September 19, 2021 - Out of balance from start to finish some 3 hours later. Based on previous bottles the excessive oak wasn't a production fault but rather that the fruit from this vintage has now faded far back. The 2012s remain serviceable, medium-bodied juice but I'd suggest moving cellared bottles up your priority 'drink now' list.

November 26, 2020 - This is a very new world effort. The nose has the smell of rain (refreshing w/ light mineral notes), blueberry and a touch of cinnamon.The legs are slow and give away the 14.2% abv. The tongue is very fruit forward blueberry pomegranate with the spiciness of a garden fresh green bell pepper on the ending.
