4/24/2022 - Drankthewholebottle Likes this wine: 92 pointsDrinking this outside in the last 40 minutes of daylight and it’s very pretty. The nose is very expensive and inviting with cocoa dusted sweet fruit and wildflowers in a cedar box. The palate is medium bodied+ with the fruit gaining richness on the finish with a solid underpinning of firm yet plush tannins. The fruit profile is plum, currant and black cherry. A half hour of airtime has done wonders and added a point, so do decant if possible. |

10/2/2020 - Drankthewholebottle Likes this wine: 92 pointsCalmed down since last taste 5 years ago. Still looking gorgeous with a reticent but inviting nose. Viognier taking over the month-feel properly. Smoky fat, olives and cherries define the flavor profile. Getting better with time in a big glass.

5/6/2019 - Drankthewholebottle wrote: 96 pointsExtracted the soft cork with a DeVine opener and it still broke in half then decanted to find absolutely no sediment. The color is a sexy black ruby and looks fantastic. The nose has earthy, cedary, dark fruit focus with hedonistic extracted ripe Cabernet underpinnings. The palate is rich and luscious with plum and blackberry fruit and notes of sweet tobacco, dark chocolate baking spice. In great shape and could age for 5 more years.

1/21/2018 - Drankthewholebottle Likes this wine: 96 pointsWhat a sexy wine! The weight, viscosity and clarity are absolutely gorgeous. The nose starts with a dusty blackberry compote with pork smoke and that glue that kids sniff to get high. The attack comes on with dry mineral laden bramble dusted in cocoa. The finish brings black figs and sweet tobacco wrapped in a juicy blanket of mushroomy earthiness that dries up nicely after 45 seconds.

6/25/2016 - Drankthewholebottle Likes this wine: 93 pointsDark purple with black edges mostly opaque at 5 oz in glass. It's a bit grainy with a bit of sediment left in the bottle. The nose is a bit tarry and smokey with super ripe black currant jam and dark chocolate. The palate is very lively and zippy at first with a strong acid streak leaving behind a fat glycerine lick soft finish. There's plenty of pepper and spice making it fatty food friendly. You can feel the full throttled extraction weighing in at 16%. It's 84 degrees outside and drinking best around 60-62 degrees F. I'd be drinking sooner than later if I had any more.
