    August 21, 2020 - The fruit is starting to yield to leather and earth, but still well balanced. An ease from start to finish, with the finish lingering due to structure. Keep enjoying.

    August 2, 2020 - Amazing bouquet and bluish purple color.Acid minus and still prominent tannins. Good, ripe fruit with more or less focused flavors.With its low acid, I am not sure if aging will bring out the fruit out of the tannin wraps, but it worth the try.

    July 13, 2020 - Inviting, complex nose of dark fruit, potting soil, licorice, cigar box and hazelnut, comforting, well-balanced palate of blackberry, ripe plum and early-picked blueberry compote, cedar chest, dried herbs and suggestions of black pepper and eucalyptus, round tannins, lengthy finish.

    September 17, 2019 - Man, all these trinchero wines have a real unique smell. They've got to be using some particular yeast that does it. And again turgid on the palate. So the Trinchero style is hard edged and high funky fruity aromatics?
