  April 7, 2018 - In a good place and time to drink up. Has a slight bite of white pepper front palate,but the fruit is fading and it’s time to drink up

  January 12, 2017 - 2 glasses caravanned on separate days, remaining 2/3 bottle uncorked but not decanted and followed over 90 mins.
  
  Wine needs 20+ mins of air to blow-off some odd flavors but then comes around as a pleasant though simple wine. Hasn't evolved much from my last tasting in Aug15; nose is non-descript if even noticeable. Has a soft but present body/backbone and a modest dry finish, but otherwise can only sense red fruit. While I'd guess this as a red blend rather than a CF, its a good value for any $27 bottle. 88-89

  September 1, 2016 - Inviting nose, gobs of black berry, cherry and spice. Nice structure, with semi-firm tannins and a pleasant finish.

  August 5, 2015 - Solid 90 - 91. 45 mins of air removes a slight off-aftertaste, revealing red cherries, plum, lightly toasted oak and vanilla. Not a long-lasting wine but a solid CF and outstanding at this price point. Glad to have a few more bottles.
  Drink through 2017
