  After a 1hr decant really became delicate and silky. Beautiful Madrona flavor! Every sip was better than the last .

  A beast of a wine, but balanced somehow, with dark fruit and earth and spice on the nose preluding a palate of dense, dark fruit. Medium-full body and matched by good acidity. Very good.

  Towering wine — so much fruit and flavor. First time I have had a wine that left not part of my mouth without impact — front to back, side to side. Finish went forever. No sickly or sweet or overdone. Amazing.

  Excellent example of the 2012 vintage, new and old world style in perfect balance. Blackberry, raspberry, plum and dried cranberry provide the fruit- ripe, but not overly so. Sage, crushed rock and baking spice add depth while mint adds a lovely freshness. The tannins are still big, but their silky quality makes this wine ever so drinkable. On the palate this wine is like a cloud, filling your mouth with layer upon layer of flavor. A long finish laced with spice and earth makes for a stunning wine.
