December 25, 2023 - A: deep ruby, just a touch of fade at the rim
N: crushed violet, vanilla, black pepper, red and black plum, black berry, black cherry
P: dry, 14% ABV, med (+) soft, velvety tannins, high acidity, full body
C: outstanding = balanced fruit and acidity/tannins, med (+) intensity, pronounced concentration, med (+) complexity, long finish on fresh black fruit. While soft with lovely mouthfeel the wine has a freshness that is unexpected, really lively in the mouth and so easy drinking. Drink now or over coming 10 years. -

September 16, 2023 - See previous notes. Pepper, violets and minerality. Beautiful. Better with food.

March 25, 2023 - Meh...group of friends joined me to drink Magnum of Delas Tourettes. Everyone thought the price point was way to high ($160.00) Why does the wine bottle say 2015 but the cork says 2017? Very disappointing.

March 15, 2023 - Drinking beautifully right out of the gate but improves with a couple hours of air. Nicely evolving with only a tease of tertiary aromas and flavors.
