    August 27, 2020 - Great, fresh dark fruits (plum, black cherry) with subtle leather/meat flavors on palate. Nice texture and spice with a clean, long, smooth finish.

    June 5, 2019 - A nose of dark fruits and spice, dark purple in color. A full bodied kitchen sink red blend, with blackberry, black cherry, chocolate and spice on finish, needs a short decant. www.winelx.com

    December 9, 2018 - A bit chalky at first. PNP... Earthy and pepper.
    Honeysuckle nose
    Opened up better after 30 min. Lots of sediments.
    Did not decant as Biale wines in general are usually too weak for a decant.
    Good value but probably past its prime. Decant and filter this one if you can.

    July 22, 2017 - Nice PSGZ blend. However I perceived a bit too much oak for my taste. A touch too jammy and hot from the high alcohol. Price exorbitant for what it is. But the winery does have a reputation that deserves $. Are the wines "flaws" Parkers's fault?
