February 21, 2018 - Decanted 3.5 hours. Luxurious bouquet throughout our drinking experience. Paired well with a creamy pasta & seafood dish.
More subtle than any Cayuse I've had, this drank light but slightly flat [its only fault]. Still, the juice was a wonder to behold - as it carried its fine tannin with elegance - and was indeed quite pretty, as a prior reviewer commented. Smoke / charcoal, raspberry & florals, char / ash. I'm not certain that this will gain complexity years down the road as others are suggesting, as there was no acidic backbone or tightness to speak of.
Yet still... with all this sunshine I'm blowing its way... I would rather have a Latta grenache at half the price, in nearly the same package of experience. 94-952 people found this helpful 1,928 views

I will pop one of these this weekend and give it a try. My recollection is that the perfumed nose of No Girls outshines Latta, but at what cost? Cheers.
