  Medium red color, beautiful aromas of black fruit and spice, luscious fruit, very little acidity, velvety smooth on palate, long finish. Purchased on release from vineyard. This wine has matured very well and is in perfect drinking condition. Hard to believe we waited so long to open one but glad we finally did.

  Cork had a bit of mold on top and fell apart fairly easily. Took about an hour to open up but was a bit faded and over the hill compared to the last bottle. Similar tasting notes of red fruit and some forest floor. Vibrant acidity which is somewhat overpowered what remains of the fruit. Towards the end of its life cycle.

  Excellent. Barn yard, pine needle, red fruits but a bit of a hot finish as fruit has faded and alcohol has become more dominant. Acid is still medium plus and fruit is there but fading. After about 1 hr in decanter starts to lose its power so PnP. Time to drink up but has aged beautifully.
