  Wow, just wow. Drinking really well. Lots of tart fruit, great acidity. Red tart cherry, coffee, black licorice. Really delightful. Definitely drink up though. Guessing will start a down slide as no tannin showing at all.

  Wonderful all around experience. Opened and let to breath an hour. Deep ruby red. Wonderful dark tones of earth and coffee combined with residual primary floral nose. Beautiful feel in the mouth with silky tannins and persistent complexity as in the nose. Long finish with continuation of the all around enjoyment.

  Dark ruby color and fairly clear. Earthy nose. Tasted ripe and very smooth, but the fruit is beginning to fade. Drink up.
