Out of the bottle the nose was overly floral and sharp. After 15 minutes in the glass it improved considerably. Cherry and sweet ripe plums. A little vegetative on the finish, but good. Medium finish. My last bottle. Held up well and better than I expected after reading recent reviews.

Very disappointing. Tasting at the winery was terrific...but opening up a 2006 bottle after years of proper storage to find a $6 table wine at best. Thin, unimpressive and flat.

There is nothing like a good GSM. This didn't disappoint. Rich and lively, with wonderful fruity texture balanced by soft, supple fruity charm. Just a joy.

Spicy nose, smooth finish and drinking very nicely.

Hints of plum, medium tannins, earthy, full-bodied, nice legs.
