  A nice wine, fruit forward but just a tinge too much acidity on the finish for my palate. Update 05/27/2016: Acidity not as predominant and enjoyed this bottle much more than the previous experience in November 2015. Obviously some bottle variation.

  This was great. Given others experience we opened early and gave it the afternoon, and I think we were well rewarded. We were still talking about different nuances we were picking from the glass an hour after dinner. So here we go... great profile across the nose - dark cherries took the lead followed by notes of caramelized red fruits, like raspberries seeping at the edge of freshly made cobbler. Fruit first over the palate, followed by notes of ground coffee, chocolate, graham cracker and orange peel. Bit of lavender in there too. Smooth edges, rich profile without being heavy. Just really enjoyable.

  This came together nicely on day 2 and 3. I wish I waited to open.

  Still enjoyable, but on its last legs IMHO. I'm drinking what remains in my cellar very soon.

  Cherry Rhubarb cocoa. Bell pepper. Drink now or let it go tobacco and earthy. Superb
