Stone fruit flavors on the tongue. You can't look at that deep maroon color in the glass without thinking plum, but this wine has a delightful combination--apricot and peach in addition to plum. It is a very mellow wine that has an incredibly refreshing quality without noticeable acidity. Some dusty sensation under the rear palate. Terrific wine.

60 minute decant. Boozy nose of dark fruit, black raspberry, and a bit of camphor. Wide swath of dark raspberry and black plym on the palate, underlaid by peppery acidity, iron ore, and a touch of fennel pollen. Fat, wide tannins with copper, black fruits, black olive, and wet soil. Still fairly primary - give it another couple years to develop. 91+ points.

Well made wine, checks all the boxes. But didn’t bring me joy like some other wines have done.

Didn’t show much fruit before or after aeration. Nice texture. Wouldn’t hold this one. Sorry we didn’t drink it sooner.
