  Decanted for two hours. An outstanding red blend. Very well-made, many layers, nice balance. Recommended. Drink or hold; may improve.

  Similar to prior tasting notes. This is a really well-made wine especially after a 90 minute decant. For those who enjoy a New World wine made in a Bordeaux style.

  It’s a solid wine, think I liked it more 2 years ago

  Full deep red, near opaque, no sediment thrown - 3
  Good fruit, black fruits & berries, full depth of aromas with light wood - 10
  Medium body, fruit flavors favoring berries and juice - a little thin and drops out a bit on the finish - 12
  Good but a little light on the follow up. - 3

  Similar to prior tasting notes but with a sweeter finish. Definitely new world Bordeaux blend. Drinking well now after a 1 hour decant.
