March 24, 2024 - Wish I would’ve drank this two years ago! Otherwise still holds up, but not as good as I remember!
August 25, 2023 - Aging beautifully. This is classic Lynmar with a depth of character that is unique to the Five Sisters. Will take better notes next time around.
July 11, 2020 - This was a fantastic wine to experience over a long evening, as it really transformed over ~3-4 hours. Deep ruby in the glass with a moderately expressive nose, mostly consisting of blueberry and cigar smoke at first. Very lush fruit on the palate when first poured, with plenty of bright acidity and a medium-weight on the palate; a heavy emphasis on red and blue fruits like cherry and raspberry. As it evolved, more spice emerged and more depth, both in the aromatics and on the body; forest floor and lightly toasted oak started to come through and add some lovely layers to complement the fruit. Definitely one of the more complex offerings from Lynmar and a lovely example of the 2013 vintage, showing that it has many more years of age-worthiness if you have the patience.
September 21, 2019 - Can't find
May 25, 2018 - Drank at Hawks for donnas 52nd. Spicy at the throat. Next time drink with spicy food. Good but not a$95 dollar bottle. Donna thinks Maggie Hawk is better
November 19, 2017 - Bought at the winery during an amazing lunch that I would recommend to anyone in the area. The wine is smooth, fruity, high acidity, low tanins. The “high end” bottle from Lynmar, although nice wine, maybe too expensive for what you get.
Second day the wine really opened up with a beautiful nose.
