  Balanced. Red fruit and black tea and plenty of acid, with great savory notes and a long finish. Drinking very well.

  Delicious wine with now settled tannic structure and reluctant fruit emanating smoothly from a delicious enjoyable wine. Please enjoy and appreciate.

  More Failla than Hirsch, as it shows an upfront, juicy quality, and only later does the earthy, anchored element of Hirsch come through. Probably needs more cellar time, but oh well.

  Based on previous notes it seems as though my patience has been rewarded with this wine. Red fruit on the nose, spice maybe? Red fruit on the palate, not much acid, light tannins. Some additional time in the cellar might make this more interesting but there’s no reason to hold back now.

  Pale garnet, with tawny edges. Light body and low acidity. Nice fruit with hints of pepper and cinnamon. Eminently drinkable and delicious. Higher pricing (with shipping) leads to a lower QPR.
