This was good. settled out nicely and though a bit too much vanilla/oak for my taste, well balanced in the finish. I think this is just hitting the drinking window. Start now and finish in a couple years. My tasting notes are similar to other tasters here. If you like what they found, this wine is for you, too.

A bit rough and chunky out of the bottle. A few hours of decanting might well have helped. Good fruit, but hidden by tannin and strong acidity at this point. Too young at this point to tell its true potential, but hold off a year or two before diving in, if you have some.

I agree this was very fresh, but I do not think I would have picked this vineyard out in a blind tasting, which surprised me.

This was really fresh. I agree with some other comments that it seems this has just hit it's stride with lots of life left.

Drank before Christmas. Very tasty, liked it a lot. got some left, will hold it a couple years longer as it needs some time yet.
