  May 5, 2010 - Fully mature, showing some dark tea and spice notes, lost some of the brightness and sweetness it had when young.

  September 1, 2008 - Still very fruity. Very fruity. Hints of tannin there, but very fruity. Did I mention the fruit? It has tons. Not sure if this will ever mellow out. Not bad with a rich lasagne, however.

  August 15, 2008 - Fruity, medium bodied, simple but enjoyable with a spicy cold soup of roasted red chilis and black beans.

  January 8, 2008 - I'll refrain from giving a score since this is the first counoise I've had. This wine has an interesting, crushed fruit nose, although I am also picking up the alcohol. In the mouth, we are talking fruit, fruit and more fruit...raspberry and cherry. There is some tannic structure. Not a wine that is encouraging me to keep sipping. The fruit intensity is wearing on me...perhaps with some food.
