  March 8, 2023 - One dimensional, tastes like juice. Some spice on the nose but not evident on the palate. Very fruit forward, with mostly raisin and plum/blackfruit coming through.

  November 29, 2022 - Allegedly a dry table wine and a 2022 Wine Society Wine Champion to boot, I found this sugary sweet with a very strong raisin character. Big and clumsy, and lacking any acidity or freshness to provide some balance, this simply cloyed. Can probably only be used as a dessert wine, but then if I wanted to match chocolate, I’d opt for a Port every time. Monstrous and hideous. CHP 80 pts
