Best on day #2, Green olive, wintergreen, smoke, extremely long finish that lasts for minutes with hints of strawberry at end. Really nice wine and better than last bottle.

Interesting wine, light red color, fruity bouquet, thought it would be heavier, 14.0%.abv, lots of flavors, smooth tannins, different Mourvèdre from Paso Robles- lighter and fruitier, drank easily with steak frites, totally new producer to me, have another bottle, always great to discover new wineries,

More elegant than the K Vintners wines. This tastes like it has some Grenache mixed in. More round fruit and plenty of lift on the mid palate. Super long finish. Tannins seem better integrated. Savory fruit. Very nice effort

Plush with wonderful balance between jammy fruit and earthiness and some acidity. Had with pasata with smoked mushrooms. Lovely wine.

This is SO good … bought at Costco …

Seriously, one of the best Quality for Price wines 🍷 I had.

Left my wife out of the rating so as not to punish the wine!

Rich black plum, cracked black peppercorn and toasted spice roll out of the glass. The palate is stacked with boysenberry, sweet black currant, bacon fat, Mediterranean herbs, smoked applewood and chocolate. This one is the most intense but also really delicious. Big, chewy tannins right now. A long finish. Seems forward but clear room to improve as well. Big and forward but still bright and juicy. Delicious.

I am entrenched with the violets, blueberry, elderberry, raw chicken, Szechuan sauce and river rock. The body is medium, with a salient entry, a plush middle and a long, gliding finish. Stunning terroir and form. Where Northern California meets Côte Rotie; where K meets Reynvaan. Thrilling today, a few years will only help the already evident harmony. Drink 2022 - 2034.

Really a nice wine. Balanced. 1st petit verdot. Have 1 more bottle may hold for a few more years and see how it changes.

Update, gets better after a few days open, day #4 really singing.

Outstanding wine, well integrated tannins with layers of spice and fruit. A strong complex food wine, not a casual sipper.

Rating higher than fellow tasters. I find the mouthful of blueberries, wet stone, and floral (violets/roses). Luscious mouthfeel. Smooth, with no alcohol burn. Delicious.

A very enjoyable wine! A MSG wine rich with raspberry, pepper, exotic spices (patchouli, maybe, cloves), garrigue and smoke. Silky smooth, with sweet tannins and good heft, this is a wine to enjoy now. Interestingly, I left some for a second day taste and I liked it better on day one. It lost fruit and was less interesting, although still solid, on day 2.

Raspberry, Strawberry, Strawberry, BlackBerry, Rasberry ... very berry
Mild Sweet ... not as sweet as a French Gigondas ... with more body and flavorful berries with orange peel, pepper and spices ... this is good stuff and yummy 😋

I love ❤️ this wine ... 95; Wife loves 💗 this wine ... 93. Hence 94 rating.

I love this wine enough to drive back and buy more before everyone else buys it all … high praise indeed!

Balanced, lots of life, supple tannins, nice crusty blackberry tart, cassis. The color is extremely youthful for a 9 year old with a beautiful violet edge to it, and I can only imagine how good this will be in a few more years, although we agreed this certainly seems like it is in its prime right now. With Katie and Tim; delicious with the barbecue ribs. Tim preferred this wine over the 7 year old NV Overture. Cork was perfectly intact, almost as if from a time capsule.
