December 29, 2014 - 30+ wines in Michigan (The Goldberg's): Very nice showing for this second wine of Wyncroft. I think it was priced in the mid-20s which is a great value. The nose has cherries, bell pepper, and tobacco. Medium bodied. Some complexity even at this young stage. Very refreshing as well as interesting.
