  June 19, 2011 - Slow ox for 3 hours. Nose of dark fruit and licorice. Very smooth with medium plus weight. Nice tannins and balanced acidity. Taste of dark fruit, cherries, some herbiness, and hint of leather. Long finish with slight hint of orange peel.

  May 31, 2010 - Plenty of fruit, balanced by bright acidity. Integrated tannins, and enough structure to hold up for an additional 3-5 yrs. Starting to reveal some secondary aromas and flavors. Well liked by all tasters.

  May 1, 2010 - This was suposed to be post mature. Deep dark red, beautiful nose, full rich mid palate. Still with some tannins that make me think this will go 2-3 more years.
  
  Wish I had more.

  April 15, 2006 - Crimson in appearance. Nice spice and floral aromas. This is a 50/50 syrah/sangiovese blend. Masterful job here. Wonderful harmony of fruits- blueberry, boysenberry, black berry, chocolate and hint of licorice. Wonderful body and finish
