  Slow ox for 7 hrs. Awesome fruit on the nose, soft tannin but has a hint of sourness. Not my favorite Carlisle but still happy to drink it.

  Blackberries, blueberries, cherries, raspberries, licorice, spice, and earthiness in the nose. Concentrated fruit in the flavor, blackberries, black cherries and licorice. Full bodied and a medium to long finish.

  This wine is in a nice place right now. Very northern Rhone like with dark berries and white pepper on the nose and palate, good medium weight a finish. Silky mouth coating texture. Another winner from Mike. No reason to wait on this but probably has a few more years of good drinking.

  Better showing than last bottle. Fruit and savory elements more in harmony. A garnet coloring to the wine, served with lamb chops an the game flavors met the wine where it is, so that was a nice pairing. Blind, I would have guessed this to be Old World....enough garrique to make me thing something like a St. Jospeh or Croze. Fun to revist. Can hold but I think best to be enjoyed now.
