    December 4, 2017 - Powerful and brooding, showing punchy blackberry, varnish, and earth. Vivacious and spicy, but not without a certain finesse for the style. Incredibly young despite the bottle age, it's still an almost inky purple. Full of character and style. A lot of enjoyment here.

    November 17, 2017 - Deep, inky color; gorgeous. A very interesting and unique nose of cedar, red licorice, vinyl, herbs, cherry, mineral. Palate is distinctive and unique, with prune, more intense red licorice, and medicinal / herbal elements in the mix. Long, enjoyable finish where vanilla, chocolate, leather emerges. Complex and intriguing. Tannins have a very light grip. I’ve had Aglianicos before, but this is NOTHING like that. This was recommended by one of the folks at this wine store, and I’m so glad we “bit” on it.

    August 25, 2017 - Polished, somewhat dusty on the nose. Nice balance in the mouth, with ample acidity, gripping yet fine tannins, and a compote of figs, plums and blueberries. Not really comparable to any of the more common varietals. Ready now but can easily and gracefully age another 6-7 years.
