wow... decanted two bottles for a nice dinner with friends, Just an great wine, strong beery tones when open with a little hint of vanila. I was araid that it might be to strong being so young but it was a little strong but not as bad as I was expecting. Needs a year or two more in the bottle. I can not wait...

Decanted for 3 hours for a couple of Friends... A little strong on first taste, so we wait about an hour. It opened up nicely, Strong fruit with a little spice. Strong Tannis but should mellow out in a couple of years. I plan to cellar until next Christmas. I do beleive it will be even better...

This is a food wine, a little tart for just sipping. With that said it was wonderful with a saute veal dish with a little asiago and mushroom dish. Cherry and floral tones with a nice finish. Could use 2 hours to decant. I only decante this wine for 1 hour.

decanted for one hour, well balanced full of dark fruits with a little pepper. Still a little young but drinking good now. In a year or two I think this wine will only improve!I can see my scores hitting 93 points in 2014...

I usally do not rate my wines but I had to on this wine. No decanting, straight out of the bottle. A Dark red purple color, medium body, on the nose dark chocolate with dark fruits. First sip a lite touch of oak back by a dark cherry and plum tones with a hint of spice and liquorice. Tannis were soft but will improve a little bit more with age, but drinking well now! Silky and smooth going down, no real heat coming from this wine. Just a great wine! If you got it your lucky! This wine is a gem for the price. Should have bought 2 cases instead of the one.

Excellent wine, served with fresh crab and fruit at a friends house, there were 3 wine drinkers and the bottle did not last 45 minutes. Just oustanding, Lemon citrus up front with some nice foral tones towards the end. This was just a prelude to an outstanding home made pasta dinner!!

Opened and decanted for 1 hour. Nice Blackberry tones with a little leather and earthy tones.
Deep purple in color, Upfront taste was blackcherry and a hint of foral tones. Great fruit but not to chewy and a nice finish. FANTSTIC wine for the price. Should show even better with a 2 hour decant.

Open this wine to go with a nice grillrd sirlon steak and grill fresh veggies! Violets on the nose with dark berry fruit on the palte. A little short on the finish but for the price it is a good wine. Again, it would show even better if I had the time to decant!
