February 21, 2016 - Aromas of herbal black fruit with a hint of vanilla underneath. Black fruit, chocolate and red berry jam on the palate. Finishes just a bit on the short side.

May 16, 2007 - As usual, this is another interesting experimental style wine from Imagery. It's not as massive and ridiculous as their Sunny Slope offering, but massive enough. The wine has definitely peaked in my opinion and won't get much better. Drink up now. The only thing that I wasn't totally enjoying was there there was a bit too much of a sharp alcoholic edge to it causing it to be a little too hot. Even with the bottle open a couple hours didn't tame this. Overall though an interesting wine that I definitely wanted to finish.
