  March 26, 2013 - Similar to past note. bold enough for steak, but nuanced and interesting enough to go with somewhat lighter fare.

  April 28, 2012 - Spectacular wine with ripe fruit and excellent balance. Medium body, soft tannins with just enough grip to hold it together and a long finish. Great now and over the next few years.

  February 9, 2012 - Nice bright, rich red fruits with raspberry and blueberry coming through. There is an edginess to the tanins that balances out the richness in the fruit and then glides to a medium finish. Should continue to soften and develop for 2-3 yrs.

  December 18, 2010 - Wonderful fruit notes. I don't get the violets the wine maker describes, but I do get a nose of roses and honeysuckle. Definitely cherries and summer fruit on the mouth with very light tannins and a long smooth finish.
