November 15, 2017 - Medium garnet with mild clearing at rim. Medium(+) aromas of black fruit/ earth/ mushrooms. Medium(+) palate of blue/black fruit. Medium well integrated tannins and medium length with decent acidity. Nothing to write home about but quite pleasant as an everyday drinker.

May 10, 2017 - No notes taken, but this is drinking very well currently. Sweetish red/black fruit on the nose and palate. Tannins well integrated. I really liked this

February 9, 2016 - Semi-translucent magenta, like a pinot noir. Strawberry, earth, and a little bit of funk on the nose. Light to medium bodied, dirty raspberries, pepper, hazelnuts, soft woody tannins, soy sauce, and a medium finish. Really easy to mindlessly drink.
