  March 13, 2022 - This has matured noticeably since the last time I had it around 3 1/2 years ago. Color is a near rose with slight browning. There’s a soft sour cherry core to the nose but it’s buffetted by almond skin, herbal tea, and mulling spice. The overall impression is similar to a 20+ year-old Burgundy (to be sure, one that is good condition). Tart on the palate. Lovely. Drink em if you got em.

  December 8, 2021 - Pale garnet. Medium nose of strawberries and rhubarb. On the palate dry high acidity low tannin, low alcohol, light body, pronounced intensity notes of strawberries and cranberries but with nice mineralogy to balance it. Long finish. Really interesting and enjoyable wine as long as you know what you’re getting. Very good to outstanding.

  July 6, 2020 - Opened and poured and served with a slight cellar chill (55F).
  Orange color, closer to a sherry than a red wine.
  Nose offers dried orange peel, strawberry and pomegranate.
  Pomegranate on the palate with a tartness to the wine that makes it inviting rather than bitter.
  Fresh and lively with good bright red berry fruit, that orange peel note for character, and good acidity.
  I have to ignore the appearance and color of the wine as I was expecting an oxidized wine. This was not.
  Quite enjoyable.
  Lost a little freshness as it warned up so I suggest serving with that a slight chill.
