Aroma a bit floral with black fruit and red mountain dirt on the palate. Velvety tannins and mild acidity. Surprised how much this has changed for the better since last year.

Mystified why this wine doesn't appeal more broadly. This wine opened up beautifully after 90 minutes. Was pleasant prior but it just got better. Lovely long finish. I've enjoyed 3 of these Hedges Bordeaux blends and been pleased with all of them.

Black fruit, cocoa, earth, herbs. Fresh on palate with nice acidity. Tannins a bit rough so decanted Was singing in 2 hours. Recommend decanting if drink now as it mellows out he rough edges.

Round, bright palate, slightly acidic, slightly tannic. Fresh strawberries, buttered popcorn, cinnamon, oak, orange juice. Fun, slow-drinking wine. Will do well with aeration or aging.

Medium purple; crushed blackbery, spice, cigar box. Texture is initially creamy, and get some zing mid-palate, from either ABV or some acidity shining thru. Definitely a darker fruit profile. Some ripe, soft blueberry. Not bad.

Nothing that stands out, fine with pizza but that's about it.
