Bu tardivement sur le déclin d'après les recommandations. Mais très surprenant, avec beaucoup d'arômes de fruits rouge, de chocolat noir et de cuir. Vin très bon, qui bien vieilli (nous avons bu un 2006).

The Treana white viongner blend is one of my favorite whites. This clearly is not a favorite. This is a big jammy mess of a wine. It seems to be trying to be something it is not. Very hot and off balance. Huge diassapointment.

Deep red center, red rim with purple highlights, some signs of age. Sweet nose, with a bramble base, dense raspberry jam, like a mix of creme de cassis and creme de mure (in a sticky, slightly oppressive way), reminiscent of a California Cab port. Drier in the mouth than the nose would suggest, younger blueberry taste up front, slightly doughy in the middle, very sweet and sour, good length of lighter red fruits. Interesting wine, the port-like nose is a little off putting and the acidity in the mouth a surprise.

Not as flavorful as earlier vintages. Lots of fruit a bit dry on the backside

Still a difficult wine for me. Out of balance - too much acid and sweetness. Tasting a little oxidized as well.
