Gobs of sweet dark fruit, full body, good acidity, moderately high tannin especially considering its 6 years in bottle. Long fruity, floral finish. Blind I would guess more of a CdP blend, its so big and boisterous- but its very enjoyable as a "cocktail wine" (not used in a derogatory way).

Popped and poured making dinner. Good acidity that mellowed slightly after a little air. Darker red fruit on the nose. Medium weight on the palate. An enjoyable wine.

California Vacation (Sonoma, SF, Monterey); 8/5/2017-8/12/2017: Tasted at tasting room. Darker fruit notes, most prominently black cherry. Nice herbal (sage) / medicinal notes. Well balanced and a lot of interesting aromas on this.
