13.9% alcohol. This is positively stunning. Aromatic and beautiful. Red cherry color. Just a lovely bouquet of red cherry, black cherry, spice, earth, and a minerals. In the mouth, caressing, velvety, and focused, with tremendous purity of flavor. It strikes an elegant balance between the vibrance of the acidity and the purity of the fruit and restrained complexity. This is a wine to sip and reflect on. It's easily enjoyable and easily drinkable, but it has tremendous depth and layers. Marvelous. A

Brough to dinner at Feast. Very iight red in color, pinkish at the rim. Nose of forest floor and strawberry. Did I mention strawberry? Palate is somewhat muted except for the blast of citrus-laced acidity that rushes across the palate. Softens nicely with some air, and cut through the rich chicken dish I had nicely. Nice bottle, but I wanted a bit more fruit tonight.

Enormous amount of volatile acidity. Definitely an off bottle. Unfortunate. Flawed.

Still holding up well. Vibrant acidity made this great with food.

Opened not decanted. Served at an offline. Quick notes: sublte nose of strawberry on the nose; as it opened up more pine needles. Fair.
