  • Delicious! Nice fruit on the nose - plum, currant. Well balanced on the palate - could last for another couple years in the bottle but is drinking perfectly now!

  • The wine is a fairly dark ruby red color, much lighter at the edge. The very nice and appealing nose has cassis, cedar, dried herbs, cherry, smoke, tobacco, raspberry, baking spices, and a touch of well worn leather. This has medium body, good acidity, and fairly integrated tannins. On the palate the wine has silky smooth fruit up front with spices and dried herbs coming in on the back end. The finish has decent length with some spicy oak adding an extra dimension. Not a lot of complexity but this is in a nice place right now. This probably should be consumed over the next year or two before the fruit starts to fade.

  • The wine is a fairly deep ruby color, much lighter at the edge. On the fairly straight forward nose there is cassis, cedar, dried herbs, tobacco, raspberries, smoke and a touch of cherry and leather. This is medium body with soft, integrated tannins and good acidity. Nice sweet fruit on the palate with dried herbs and spicy oak coming through on the backend. Nice length on the finish which shows more of the savory side with the fruit just providing a touch of sweetness. Drinking nicely now, but I'd probably lean towards drinking over the next year or two before the fruit fades and leaves the oak component as the dominant element.

  • Deep ruby color, much lighter at the edge. Raspberry, cedar, dried herbs, tobacco, cassis, with a little cherry and smoke on the easy going nose. Medium body with soft, ripe tannins and decent acidity. Sweet fruit and nice savory elements on the palate with just a bit of mint on the backend. Nice length on the finish which is more savory than fruity. A nice, elegant, restrained wine at this point.
