Medium garnet color. A bit herbal on the palate. Some dark fruit evident along with some of the depth I expect from Spring Mountain fruit. This was better the second day. The herbal notes were gone but the wine was a bit flat. Freemark makes a really good Spring Mtn wine. Just as a rising tide floats all boats, a thin vintage impacts all wineries. This herbal characteristic seems present in many ‘11’s.

Nice but expected more. Deep garnet color. Limited nose. Evidence of deep complex Spring Mountain fruit and medium tannins but has not really opened at the 2 hour mark. Seems pretty one dimensional but that dimension is really deep. Will re-evaluate in a couple of hours.

See 3/30/18 notes. This bottle was consistent with that experience.
