Very good overall but has a mild tannin tension energy that somewhat gets in the way of fruit and not sure that will go away with more time. Still very pleasant and I suppose it could be a drink or hold but taking a risk with holding as the fruit might totally fade out.

We opened a magnum at a NY day vegetarian pizza party and everybody loved it. Excellent well integrated dark cherry and subtle toasted vanilla notes. That said, it is pretty much at a “drink now” stage IMO.

Deep, black cherry style fruit on this '14 Deviate. The 2022 community end-date is seriously off, suggesting 2030. This was our last bottle of the '14, wish we had more. Good wine for food pairing (pizza in our case).
