  Delicious wine that combined a streak of earthiness with a nicely concentrated core of red fruit. Great balance and it's easy to see that time does very good things to Jim's wines.

  Very impressive wine, easily my favorite of the tasting. Black berries on nose and palate with dried herbs, dark chocolate and baking spice hints. Very well balanced, very good depth here. Syrah, Merlot blend.

  Pretty wine and drinking well. Sweet ripe fruits in creamy dense style showing black berry, mulbery, and plum flavors with a toch of cocoa. Quite tasty.

  Jemrose Dinner @ Marche Moderne in the OC (Marche Moderne, Costa Mesa CA): Tasted alongside the 2008. 60% syrah and 40% merlot. The syrah is done in neutral oak, the merlot in 100% Taransaud oak. This 2006 is certainly flamboyant and flashy with lots of ripe tones and oak accents. Dark chocolate, richness and dark fruit.

  Saturday Tasting Group (Knightsbridge Wine Shop (Northbrook, IL)): Heady medium spice coupled with a bit of enjoyable heat.
  Some nice cardmom, dark cherries, plush plummy cassis - very pretty stylistically.
  Chocolatey and beautifully structured with a cool smokiness on the back end.
  A little bacon fat and smoked beef jerkey play as well.
  The palate is feminine and displays a great mouth feel.
  A little roast coffee and fresh vanilla bean flavors are noticebale as well.
  Excellent wine from an underrated producer.
