I wondered if this would age gracefully and the answer is yes. The fruit notes are still strong and the firm acidity in balance with the body, the finish is all berries. Had this with a local slightly sweet sausage (pineapple juice) from Lockeford. The match was delicious. An saving my other bottle for T Day with maybe a 2017 if they pan out in two weeks. Oregon Pinot if nothing else.

Nice for the price. Loved the floral aroma, beautiful color and tasted the fruity berries along with some cinnamon. I got it for $9 so for me it was a tremendous buy. Noticed the tasting note below that it had some roasted tomato flavor. Indeed it did. It had a nice finish
Nice change of pace for us at least. I would recommend as a nice lighter option.

Event - Celebration - CHRISTmas - 2016 (Wine Vault & Bistro, San Diego, CA): Just OK, nothing notable. Bouquet grass, vegetable, floral, vanilla. Taste Light berry, cinnamon, dry, bland, minimal finish. Tasted with pairing: rosemary scented chicken meatballs | toasted garlic tomato ragout | feta crumble. Over priced at $18 / bottle. Tasted at Wine Vault & Bistro, San Diego, CA.
