November 4, 2019 - flat and one dimensional. Past its prime.
August 2, 2017 - This wine was stored horribly -- in the bottom of my office file cabinet for 4 years, forgotten under some papers. But this evening it really drank beautifully, especially considering its past. Could have mistaken it for an entry-level Priorat, with nice purity of fruit (raspberries), a hint of tannins, and a long finish. Not what I expected!
February 2, 2017 - This was a fun well made wine. Not sure it will last much longer before the downturn but drinking great now. Slowly improved over 4 days.
September 29, 2016 - solid qpr. good fruit and spice. held up well to Moroccan lamb
June 6, 2016 - Big and heavy compared to previous vintages.
June 6, 2016 - What a great value wine - fruity, well balanced, held up for a few hours, with a touch more acid this wine would be really good.
March 21, 2016 - Very nice garnacha with a fresh, cherry flavor that bubbles through the underlying layer of raisins that first greets the palate. Flavorful with a long, appealing finish. Very versatile: we drank it with some Brie and then went on to drink it against pan-fried haddock--of all things, but I intend to open bottles to serve with lamb on Easter Sunday with which it should pair at least equally well. There's a thread of sweetness through this otherwise dry wine that plays well with savory accompaniments.
October 15, 2015 - Solid wine has reached end of life. After aeration for 30 minutes the flavor flattened near zip.
August 9, 2015 - Serious Value here. Had with gyros and was extremely happy. Full bodied Southfield but lightweight thanks to acidity. Each taste was fun.
April 19, 2015 - Needs 45-60 minutes to open up. Went great with smoked pork.
