91 Points

Wednesday, August 10, 2022 - Dark ruby/ purple color - minimal rim clearing
Medium plus intensity aromas of ripe red/ blue fruit with characteristic smoked meat and green herb in background - definitely fruit forward on the nose
Medium plus body with palate of ripe/ sweet red and black fruit with hints of green - fruit driven and delicious but lacking in complexity
Medium acidity with medium plus ripe tannin structure
Medium plus alcohol with moderately long fruit driven finish
Quite enjoyable - definitely not to be confused with Rhone wine however and definitely in the California camp
