January 12, 2018 - Burst of fruit on the nose. Distinct cherry in the mouth. Excellent balance.

December 24, 2015 - Christmas Eve Dinner in Alamo (Alamo, CA): Strong horsey Brett that overruns the meager fruit.

October 26, 2015 - Excellent value here. some mild band-aid and volatility on the nose, mixed with plenty of primary fruit, coffee and herbs. Beautiful balance on the palate: light- to medium-bodied, balanced acidity, no discernible tannins. Unassuming, exuberant, lots of red fruit on the midpalate, with a good length. Wonderful foil for something bold and umami-filled, like a good pizza or salumi.
