November 19, 2012 - A bit earthy on the nose but not in an old world style...not too much going on in the nose. Sour cherry, new toasted oak on pallet. Medium light body. Very bitter finish...wondering if its whole cluster pressed and fermented...lots of green tannin.

December 3, 2011 - Tom's 34th Birthday (Home & Cafe Urbano): Blind tasting:
Astringent, strong, alcoholic on the nose. Candied fruit---sweet cherry, strawberry, cotton candy (a bit), and some yeasty, sweet, and spicy flavor at the middle and end of the palate. The spice at the end really helps balance this wine out.
