Tasted blind I would have said Bordeaux. Great balance to this wine. Flavor profile with black cherry, slight plum, with mineral and just a hint to tobacco. Medium finish. Tannins are well integrated. This is drinking great now, but certainly could go longer.

Same as my previous tasting notes. To me, this is not as big a cab as some of the highly rated cults but has a great body with complexity that works for me. Was terrific with a filet and pasta.

Tasted blind: Deep red in color. Nose shows plenty of leather, hints of tar and Coke. Lots of peppery flavors. Nice sweetnesss and very smooth. Has power but at the moment the tannins are just not integrated. I have zero experience with this wine/producer but expect the wine to improve in once it finds the balance. Wait or decant

Nicely aromatic. Very fruity. Not much in underlying structure, zero remaining tannins on the finish. This would probably be a crowd pleaser in a "cocktail" setting, but not so great with some expensive strip steaks. More Aussie Shiraz than Bordeaux in the flavor continuum.

Unfortunately a flawed bottle. I was very exited about tasting this wine but the TCA did a superb job getting my down to the ground. Hope to retaste as I never had a wine from this producer...
