I like high acid wines, but this one was still razor sharp even after a few years of bottle age. It was much better on day 2. Hold for another 2-3 years.

This bottle certainly wasn't corked; it was just so acidic in the finish that it hurt going down. Nose was nice, pleasant cherry fruit was consistent for 3 days. Its best day was the 3rd when you tasted more pie cherry up front, but the flavors finished quickly at mid palate, then really sharp acidity would be the main experience at each sip. Other 2013 from Ken Wright haven't fared to well for me so maybe it was just a cold lean vintage? Bought 4 btl's, different vineyards, you know the cost, Meh..

not good, I had a bottle a few years back and it was harsh and out of balance, now its quite tasteless but some sour cherry.

Drink this now. It is not going to last. Or I should say any fruit left is not going to last. Pair carefully with a richer foods.

Clear pale garnet with slight rim browning. Plastic, slate, strawberry. Low acids, medium tannins. White pepper. Medium slightly tannic finish.
