This is great. Higher toned, with plenty of fruit but never veering towards over extracted or cloying. Good structure. Definitely has some very enjoyable runway ahead of it.

Tart, meaty, grippy, and very enjoyable. This isn’t a deep, contemplative wine (apparently made the year after Ed Durrell sold the vineyard) at this point, but it’s in a good spot and isn’t going to die any time soon, though I suspect it’s not improving any either. Enjoy it, take good care with the high degree of sediment.

I am interested in tasting wines - and I have a friend or two who taste with me occasionally. I am NOT an experienced oenophile, as I have just been drinking and enjoying wine for 6 years or so but if you are putting something together sometime, sure!

I moved back to Boise a few months ago after living in Portland the last several years. Are you in the business? If so, we might already know each other.
