December 19, 2019 - A beautiful wine made more enjoyable by the unexpected pleasure of opening an unfamiliar bottle. Florals, Gorgeous ripe basket of fruits- cranberry, coulis of raspberry and blackberry, blueberries. Black licorice, fennel seed, clove, ginger, Garrigue, white pepper spices add complexity and a sense of liveliness. Acid, heat, and elevated tannins pump up the volume. Terrific value.

June 11, 2019 - Rich red fruits with minimal acidity or tannin. Ready to drink but will likely improve some with age. Would not expect this to have serious long term storage potential.

March 11, 2019 - In a backward phase--all tannin and alcohol at present. Hold.
