  February 13, 2011 - Taste-wise moving away from these wines but we very much enjoyed this. It was sweet fruit flavored but had a noticeable acidity that made it a very enjoyable food wine.

  November 13, 2010 - 14.4% alcohol. Black cherry color. Terrific nose of black cherry, baking spice, flowers, and minerals. The floral note was pronounced in this bottle. In the mouth, velvety and pure, with delightful concentration and mouth feel. Black cherry fruit and baking spice cut across the palate, supported by singing earth and floral notes. Lively acidity leads to a long, juicy finish. Just trucking along. A-/A

  September 2, 2009 - Nose of hide, leather and briar; strawberry mint palate. Balanced acid; should perform well for another year or two.

  April 12, 2009 - 14.4% alcohol. This is a superb wine, drinking well now, but with a bright future ahead. Marvelous nose of bright red and black cherry, classic baking spice, and a floral note. In the mouth, racy, structured, and a laser beam of cherry fruit cuts across the tongue. Earth and spice complexity takes a back seat but unfolds as the acidity refreshes your palate. Long finish. This is rocking good stuff. A-/A
