October 1, 2018 - Magenta in color. 13.5% ABV. Savory nose of red fruits, olive brine, bacon fat and smoke. Medium to full bodies with perfect acidity. Plush and well structured. Cherries, tapenade, gamey meat, blood and minerals on the palate. Lots going on here. Tremendous length on the finish. A great bottle from an average vintage that perhaps just lacks the concentration I typically expect from Armada. Best over the next 2-4 years.

September 29, 2018 - Some amount of the usual Cayuse funk. A little tobacco, not much pepper. Overall not a stellar offering

September 12, 2018 - Dark red. The funkiness has receded somewhat. Plush plum and red currant notes. Lots of savory classic bacon and black olive flavors on long finish. This has opened up significantly in the past year or so and if it’s positive development to continue.

August 26, 2018 - Plums and cherries over an earthy core. Nice wine but finishes light.
