($40) Looks like the color of rusty rose petals in the glass with significant translucence. The nose shows black cherry fruit, a strong whiff of copper Pinot Noir funk. Tangy black cherries on the palate. Decent, drink sooner rather than later.

($42) Translucent ruby in the glass. The nose shows toasty oak, chunky red berry fruit, and scents of mushroom and forest floor. Medium-full bodied with more sweet red fruits on the palate with a tangy finish. Decent, slightly underwhelming.

Consumed at Fresh restaurant with duck risotto and pan-seared breast of chicken. Bottle brought from my personal cellar. Bright disc. Light-to-medium ruby robe with pink rim. Clean nose, showing moderately intense aromas of dried cherries, cranberries, clove and mocha. Light-to-medium-bodied on the palate, with relatively high acidity and light sweet tannins. The flavors mirror the nose, with the spicy aspect moving to the forefront. Medium, tart finish. Very nice, but the acid in this wine is playing an increasingly dominant role.

Raisin, cola, old cherries. Light tomato and bay leaf. With a nice acidic backbone and medium tannins

red. Nose was interesting, slightly oxydative, dried herbs. Taste was medium weight, good enough.
