    April 11, 2021 - PNP, straightforward and without muddiness, nor overly tannic. Pleasant nose and very drinkable. This was my last bottle, it might have held up for a couple more years.

    December 13, 2020 - Red berry and currant with white pepper undertones. Medium-bodied with nice red fruit and subtle herb elements. Nice acidity.

    November 26, 2020 - nose of stones, dirt, minerals, black pepper, green pepper, dust. black mature fruit on the palate. Fills and coats the mouth while being fully bright and dry with tannins.

    October 5, 2020 - PNP and tasted over 3 hours. Bright red fruit on the nose. Ripe, concentrated, nice finish with supporting tannin. Very good CDR that is not at the Dunnuck review level for me but certainly easy to enjoy and not a bad price. B+/A-

    April 11, 2020 - Popped and poured. Hints of pepper and red berry fruit, a touch ripe, something a little funky too- perhaps a subtle hint of brett. Medium-bodied. Red berry compote, white pepper and red plum flavors. Drink now.
