Excellent. Powerful aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, black tea, violets, baking spices and forest floor. Fruit quality is outstanding. Round, plush, silky but with enough acidity to package it all together. My first experience with treehouse, and it was a winner.

Outstanding. Tried at 75 minutes (was still closed but delicious) and then again at the 3 hour mark with dinner. Beautiful dark fruit, perfect acidity. Ran a little hot and the finish wasn’t particularly interesting/complex, which prevented a higher score, but I would buy many more bottles.

Decanted for one hour (as I finally remembered to refer to my previous TNs). The color was a deep dense violet. The nose was heavy with dark fruits and some earth. The medium plus bodied palate overflowed with black currant, blackberry, black cherry, raspberry and plum, along with some spice and black tea. The acidity was very crisp and sufficient to balance all of these fruits, while there was just a touch of tannin on the finish. This is a bruiser of a wine and will continue to hold for years to come. Feel free to enjoy it now, but give it some air!

Decanted for 45 minutes, but better after 1 hour. This bottle was as enjoyable as our previous bottle on 4/6 and showed more blue and black fruits along with the dark red. Can definitely cellar but is highly enjoyable now -- with air up front.

Past its prime - becoming a bit pruney.
