PnP. Translucent purple with garnet tint and a fallow pink edge in color. Nose of black cherries, raspberries, cola and a tinge of alcoholic heat. On the palate: sour cherries, plum, warm spice, pie crust and cassis popping at the tail. Creamy tannins are just barely perceived on gums. Long finish of cherry liquor, warm spice and malo. Drank consistently over two days.

Pretty cherry and vanilla aromas framed by fallen leaves and cured pork, supple tannins on the palate but with sufficient structure to age. On the palate there’s more cherry with vanillin and sweet pipe tobacco on a backdrop of dusty fallen leaves. Earthier than your typical California Pinot makes me a fan, the fruit isn't overripe or jammed up. The finish is long long long, and rich. I’d love to see a little more complexity, and it’s likely to improve with age and show a bit more. As breezy to drink now as a fine beaujolais, but I think time will reward with this one.

First night, insipidly sweet red fruit, high acid, Third night, faded fruit, more earthy. Poor Value @$24

Beautiful aroma of dark red raspberries and cherries, a really nice lingered complex finish.
Paired with left over eggplant bolognese.
Cheers

Bright notes of cherries and rhubarb, with some vanilla overtones. Pleasant
