  I reviewed this wine in 2014 and felt it needed some age to come together. It is now in its drinking window! It’s a dark fruit forward wine with old world finesse. The nose is savory with notes of mild olives and digestive herbs. The tongue starts with big black fruit, transitions to tart cherry and ends with a smooth pleasant earthy finish. Drink it now!

  Paso Robles Winery Visits; 8/30/2023-9/1/2023: Ruby center with minimal fading at the rim. Fennel and black olive aromas. Medium to full bodied. Lush black and blue fruit with olive and soy complexity. Herbs, soil, and a leaner drying finish. This is also very French in style despite the fruit forward attack. Excellent.

  Fully extracted dark purple Nice nose more Syrah dominant with the red fruit of the Grenache in the background. Tannins are partially resolved, long finish. Lovely bottle in its window

  Deep ruby nearly opaque. Black fruits, licorice, leather, black pepper, spices. Dry, medium + tannins, long finish. Leave my last bottle for a couple of years.

  PnP from a magnum at a dinner party. No detailed notes. Drank very well after 15-20 of opening. Well received by all.
