July 10, 2020 - Light ruby/garnet with extensive clearing
Medium plus aromas - ripe cherry and dried herbs with mushrooms and turned earth - delicate and beautiful - no noticeable oak at this point
Medium minus palate - light sour/sweet cherry but not much - no secondaries to speak of
Medium plus acidity and medium tannins and rather short finish
Beautiful aromas but palate is lacking
Might be time to drink this -

February 2, 2018 - Consistent with my previous note but with another year in the cellar that helped this wine mature even further.

December 10, 2016 - Decanted for 1 hour. Paired with grilled pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes, and a kale, apple, and cranberry salad.
The appearance of this wine looked thin and light in color but was anything but thin on the palate. Nose: Cherry, strawberry, and cranberry. Palate: Elegant, structured, and pleasantly complex with balanced fruit, acidity, oak, and soft tannins. The finish was tart and lingering. I'd like for the finish to be a little softer. I have two more bottles so time will tell. This is a really nice wine that is drinking well at a great price point.1 person found this helpful Comment -

May 27, 2016 - Lithe and feminine with an understated complexity. Gorgeous and delicate articulation of fruit with a perfect balance of oak, tannins and acid. Exceptional qpr. Bummed we recently missed a second chance to purchase more.

January 24, 2016 - Tart red fruit. Cherry and cranberry as expected. Faint oak and vanilla. Medium acidity. Silky tannin. Delicious now. Will cellar my other bottle for 5 more years to see what develops. Good value will buy more if I get the chance.
