    May 5, 2017 - Toasty yet pure. Vibrant blackberry and plum with meaty core. Will be even better in a year.

    March 24, 2017 - Color is dark purple with a tiny hint of bricking. A somewhat slight nose of forrest, plum, leather and some oak showing through. A bit green tasting on the initial palate. Not bad, just missing that velvety softness of aged bordeaux. More forrest and leather in the middle with only a hint of fruit. Does have a very long finish with licorice flavors lingering for a while. Good wine for the price, just feels like something is missing to complete the package.

    March 11, 2017 - St Emilion at its purest form with nuance, French oak, Garrigue and plenty of cassis. Showing a bit of tannins still which means it can continue to improve for a year or two.

    November 20, 2016 - 3 hr decant started very smooth but then it became tannic; not sure what happened but I think this wine needs more time.

    It went well with rack of lamb
