Brick red color. On nose, high toned cherry, sweet cherry, rosemary/sage and sandalwood aromas. On palate, full body, high acidity, medium tannins and very long finish. Palate consistent with nose. 93-94 range.

Consistent with note from 1/22 94-95 range. Beautiful. Smoked a 2016 Spring Mountain Vineyards Cab tasted alongside (that wine didn't have near the complexity of this wine).

Should have looked at inventory as I had another bottle of this in late 2021. Brick red color. Gorgeous nose - sandalwood, sweet cherry, floral, savory tobacco and red licorice. Evolved over time and added complexity - palate had similar flavor profile. Medium+ body, high acidity, grainy tannins show on the very long finish. 95+ I love this wine.

opened 4 hours before dinner and decanted 1 hour prior to dinner (grilled NY Strips)
Medium red color. Great nose - rose petals, licorice, sour cherry, sweet cherry and cedar on nose. On palate, flavor profile consistent with nose (ex. cedar). Full body, high acidity, integrated tannins (covered by fruit) and very long finish where tannins show up. Love this wine. 94+/-

Earthy with oak notes. Notes of cherries, rose, and a hint of spice.
