May 8, 2015 - Medium-high acidity, with excellent notes of barnyard on the nose, and flavors of citrus rind, barnyard, and ethyl alochol on the palate. 83% Grenache, 17% Mourvedre. Should probably be consumed by 2016.

September 14, 2014 - Beautiful pale amber color. Old world style horse stable on the nose and some bitterish grapefruit rind-like aromatics; at room temperature it exhibits medium-high fiziness on the palate with notes of citrus, grapefruit rind, leather, barnyard, and some strawberry; finishes dry with flavors of bitters. Upon chilling the crisp citrus notes on the palate became more intense. Made for an excellent pairing with tomato salad and a baked brie in pastry crust. Probably drink by 2016. 13.9% ABV.

September 14, 2014 - Last of 12. Very nice rose. This one was good from the start but actually improved with a little age.

May 18, 2014 - Last two bottles from a case purchased on release. Both showed really well. Fragrant. Mid-weight. Great balance. Pleasing finish. Among the better rosés (to my palate) coming out of California.
