  March 14, 2012 - Limited experience with PS, but I like what I'm tasting. Decanted two hours, poured back to bottle. Regally purple in color, with teeth staining intensity. Plum, sandelwood, macerated black cherries on the nose. Black and blue on the palate with pitch perfect balance. Drinking beautifully now! Hard to find any faults. My first Hayfork. This will make it much more difficult to sit on the Cabs.

  December 25, 2011 - Decanted about 2 hours. Meat and black fruit on the nose, with hints of pepper and floral notes. The backend has some leather and red fruit, and just a touch of smoke. Rich and juicy on the palate with ripe tannins and dark fruit. The mid-palate is meaty and spicy, and it finishes with a little smoky leather.

  July 12, 2010 - Big, tannic and full of dark fruit flavor. Needs lots of bottle time. Liked the test drive though. Will definitely buy more.
