Still tasting great! This still has plenty of structure and flavor so it will be fun to see how much more it has to go. A bit tight on opening and a bit more mellow the following day. Somewhat complex as it dances with cherry and blackberry along side some more earthy notes.

Quite a lot of oak influence bit not dry. The fruit does emerge on the back end with cherry and cranberry flavors. Not restrained, this wants to go big for sure.

This is tasting great, good balance with the flavors tipping more to the oak influence and some mineral notes. The cherry/red berry notes emerge a bit later. Great structure and focus of flavor that represents the WV well.

This is tasting well. The tannin's are soft and this a fine expression of the Valley. Delicate flavors of cherry and raspberry with a slightly dry mouthfeel. Some notes of tea as well.

Drink up! It's go time, this will not likely improve. Good structure, nice balance and long finish.
