December 11, 2012 - Nice round, soft GSM. Very nice for the price. Dark, deep garnet color. Enjoyed it with grilled shrimp and steak salad. Quite jammy and some vanilla oak. Very little acid, I think, or at least very well balanced by fruit and tannins. Soft and smooth. Perfect for me at the time.

August 18, 2012 - Raspberries, blackberries, vines, and a touch of tomato on the nose. Nice strawberry flavor with some rhubarb moving in on the finish. The mouth feel is smooth, and there's a bit of a candy hit from the mid palate through the finish.
