February 7, 2008 - Russet/garnet color. Very clean on the nose with smoke and burnt sugar. True to the varietal but lacking punch and depth. Light body. Some caramel on the palate and definite citrus notes on the finish at times. Drank with salmon and the two forged an intense smoky flavor.

February 4, 2008 - Some smoky elements mixed with cherries and a hint of iodine on the nose. Maybe a hint of red licorice too. Good Raspberry flavor mixed with cranberries and a touch of pomegranate. A bit of acidity on the finish.

October 18, 2007 - AD Trade Show: Good fruit, with some earthiness. But a bid hollow on the mid palate. Kind of boring. Mid 80's.
