Retried (I unfortunately have a few). Flawed. A little Bret and a little VA. This winery charges a lot and never seems to get it quite right. Agree also with others’ mention of “petroleum” (great for Riesling- not so much here) and “medicinal” qualities.

Dark fruit and chocolate, full bodied, rich, with plush tannins. In a word, modern. A bit engineered-tasting, but hard not to enjoy. A good Thursday night football wine. Not for cogitation. A tiny medicinal cut near the finish that makes it a touch more interesting. Drink now and for 3 more years.

Dark fruited nose shows camphor and the slightest hint of jam. Black currants, spices, and a medicinal aspect on the full bodied palate. Fruit masks high alcohol. Nothing complex, just tasty and enjoyable.
