Don’t know if this was flawed or what. The cork came out in pieces, typical of US makers, wine was inedible and basically garbage. Should have drank 5-8 years ago. This wine can’t handle age.

Decanted about 2 hours. Dark red fruit, some hint of chocolate and spice. It has been a couple of years since we last opened this vintage. The wine has matured nicely and was very smooth. Drinking very nicely right now. Time to drink these up.

(Tamarack Cellars Reserve Red Wine Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Red Mountain) Leaps up aromatically with blue and black fruit, high toned spices, and mineral notes. The palate is incredibly tightly wound but shows beautiful tannin refinement with a thirty-plus second finish. 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, and 14% Cabernet Franc. Aged 22 months in French oak (75% new). 14.4% alcohol. 134 cases produced.
