Dark color, tannic, not sure if fruit is dissipating, is wine going up or down, lots of sediment, ok sipping, medium body, never took off, have a few more bottles so we will see how it develops, drank with rack of lamb and spinach pie.

Bright ruby color. Offers raspberry, red plum, espresso, white pepper, potting soil and cardamom. Creamy, medium-full bodied, with a frame of polished tannins that are surprisingly resolved, given the wine's youth. Raspberry and mouthfuls of dirt, with a lingering finish. Robust, round with a seductive edge to it. Drinking fine now, but with plenty of runway ahead of it.

Balanced, tannic with good fruit, nice sipping, complex flavors, good structure, 13.5% abv, drank easily, medium body, really like this winery, drank with strip steak, will drink again.

Very woody, and dry on the open, mostly tasting of wood, gravel and earth. Fruit was very subdued, almost non-existent. Didn't really open much in the decanter, even with aeration and time. Barely noticeable fruit, somewhat bitter and tasted like chewing on wood and rocks. Not sure if a bad bottle or what but ended up pouring most of it out.
