BRIGHT red tart cherries out of the gate, developing more baked apple, cinnamon, earth flavors. finish was complex and huge. the nose was muted at first but evolved over time. finish was 45 seconds. drink now it's peaking, and should continue to peak for 2 more years before it declines.

One of the better Siduri's I have tasted recently. Nice strawberry aromas and flavors. Good balance and very smooth. Went well with the sushi dinner. This is at a nice point right now. We didn't decant or let the first glasses breath long. The second round was a bit better so I suggest some time with air.

Pretty much on board with gutt22's last note. On the palate for me this was focused, balanced and with medium plus intensity, fairly penetrating dark red fruit. The acidity was excellent. Complexity and finesse were fair

14.1% alcohol. It's amazing how this wine has changed in the past year. Right now, it's sleeker, leaner, and tighter than before. It's a completely different wine. Black cherry color. Excellent nose of minerals, red cherry, and earth. In the mouth, racy and like a laser, cutting a sharp swath across your tongue with its tart red cherry, spice, earth, and mineral notes. Bracing acidity and a slight tart edge to the finish. I love acidity, and this is hitting the right notes with that. A-

Riper than I would have expected. Good, not great. Not particularly complex. Still has a few years left in it, might improve if it develops some earthy secondary characteristics.
