Continues to drink well, some nice secondary notes, very impressive bouquet and again think underrated. Paired nicely with first half of Texans/Browns playoff game.

Really soft and tasty fruit still lingering. A very nice session wine. Laura and Rejo away at wedding. Reviews here a bit harsh me thinks, although not the greatest value in the world. Fun drinking though.

Informal notes at Vine Vault mega tasting 33 wines in all......all wines open 60-90 min by time they were consumed. Most were slow ox'd in bottle, some were double splash decanted, a few were straight decanted.
I think the CT community has fairly scored this one. Hints of aging but the fruit is still pretty vibrant, just not 'showroom new', lol. Very well made and the price point more in line with the wine.

One hour slow ox. Very deep brick red color, with a rusty rim. Saddle soap leather, orange rind, mushroom, and candied plum on the aged nose. Smooth, dry palate. Round tannins on the medium long finish. This is good, but past its prime for my fruit forward palate.

Dark garnet color. prune juice and over-ripe raspberries on the nose. Rich, overripe plums dominate with prunes and raisins.
