July 25, 2019 - PnP. Beautiful garnet to medium purple with semi clear rim. Medium fruit with cassis spice and hint of green cedar. Palate is well balanced fruit acid and tannins. Blackberry black cherry and earthy spice. So well balanced. Very near peak.

September 27, 2018 - Finding more dark fruits, blackberry notes, smooth middle with some finishing tannin. Somewhat more dense with more full body than previous bottle.

February 12, 2018 - This wine is made for alcoholic termites. I am part alcoholic termite, so I kinda liked it. But it is so woody and has so much heat, many will be turned off. Bright cherry, vanilla, smoke, cough drop. Aging well for a crianza. Buy if this your style.
