Lovely balance, integration and sweet tannins -

March 29, 2014 - Sweet red berries on nose. Improving steadily. Very attractive mouthfeel, soft and generous fruit with ripe tannins to finish.

August 9, 2013 - Great tannins, but almost understated. Enjoyed with a salad (hers) and a BLT (mine) over about an hour. Super solid Bunnell option as always.
