PopnPour, tasted over 1 hr and on Day 3 -pretty med dark red -pure fresh sweet black cherry, cola -med- acidity, med weight and concentration, very silky and elegant with restrained yet lush sweet black cherry fruit and a bit of minerality, med- tannins and moderately long finish; even more expressive on day 3 and picked up some spice elements and impressive minerality -very pleasant with New World pure sweet fruit but elegant and refreshingly not surmature or over-oaked, drinking very well now and plenty of time left to gain complexity; after 2 days this morphed into a wine that resembled a 2009 from Vosne.

Bright red. Raspberries, cherries and a hint of spice on the nose. Same red fruits on the palate, with some spice and floral notes. Integrated tannins, nice mouthfeel. Drinking wonderfully now.

Now, a more refined, subtle cherry tart, well balanced. I don't think it has fully matured yet.

Quite nice, and a notch above the non-clone specific Hallberg Vineyard, with cherry, blackberry, sweet spices, and vanilla.
