November 8, 2018 - The wine looks crimson colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like cherry and gooseberry. The body is medium. The wine has coarse texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has high acidity. A bit tart

November 19, 2016 - Big and bold with dark cherry, plum and currant notes. Plenty of tannin to go around with a slate, chalky finish. Great value.

August 29, 2016 - PnVnD 1/2 of the bottle let air for 1hr. Dark purple crimson saturated with a crimson to clear rim. Fir rosemary Thyme tons of fennel plum fig and blackberry on the palate. Medium weight with slight cherry skin tannins. Plum fig blackberry touch of spice on the palate. A bit weak in the mid-palate and a short sharp finish. Will see if it improves tomorrow.
Day 2. Much better. More integrated and complex with less overt awkward fruit. Richer with a nice lavender note. +2pts.
