February 24, 2019 - Very nice.
On nose, tart cherry, cranberry, forest floor & stems - very "Burgundian." On palate, medium body, high acidity, low tannins and long finish. Flavor profile similar to nose - this wine is in a great place. 92+/-
February 21, 2019 - Drink now. Starting to lose its fruit.
February 20, 2019 - A muted nose of some fruit and some spice, medium ruby in color. A medium to full bodied red, with cherry, raspberry, some spice on flat finish, past it’s prime, expected more. www.winelx.com
November 29, 2018 - Really lacking overall, probably over the hill but I’m not sure it ever was the life of the party.
February 24, 2018 - Great nose with raspberries, strawberries. Seamless and pleasant on the core with most red berries, but also a deep and solid core. Lots of layers to enjoy.
February 8, 2018 - German Pinot tasting, wine #8: (joker). Dark red in color. Extreme nose with the most dominant scent of rhubarb I've ever experienced. Funky mouthfeel with rhubarb, gooseberry and hot spices. High acidity, lively spirit and reasonable balance. Definitely stands out in the crowd. 85p. Best votes=0, worst votes=5. LOTN. My worst vote.
November 17, 2017 - Very dark red color, 3mm clear margin. PNP, followed 1 glass over 2.5hrs. Big fruit initially, had some attractice earth on the nose, dark cherry, cranberry, cherry cola, spiced. The palate is rather spicy with black pepper, dried herbs, choke cherry, tart cranberry, cherry cola, quite a bit of heat. Has a very typical central coast palate. Not a fan myself. Probably on the downswing. Big fruit initially, but diminishes some with the heat.
August 21, 2017 - Tiefe Kirsch-, Brombeer- und Dörrpflaumenoten, unterlegt von Erde und frischem Holz; am Gaumen mittlere Länge, sehr holzlastig, Röstaromen.
April 8, 2017 - cherries, red raspberries and mild earth; balanced w/great mouthfeel and mid-palate, but lacked on finish.....was waiting for it, but it never came
March 17, 2017 - Darker fruit profile, with stewed plums, blueberry, and black cherry. Full bodied. Missing acid. Was not a fan, but no obvious flaw. Very different from my last note on this.
