June 15, 2014 - Delicious and at its peak. Father's Day dinner. Decanted for 3+ hours prior to drinking. Served with grilled flank steak. Terrific structure in the mouth - an almost textured feel, with dark cherry notes, leather/tobacco, some smoke, and some spice. Nicely balanced; long finish. Dark in the glass; relatively little sediment. Nice effort from the Elyse team.

May 25, 2014 - Sarah loves this says 98.
Huge rich profile. First scent was oodles of jamminess a good amount of mineral elements. It needs to open up a bit to be really enjoyed. I would have given it a 90 -

October 25, 2013 - Big camphor/eucalyptus on the nose. Rich and fragrant wine. Pretty fruit. Touch on the savory side. Really nice wine.
