    July 2, 2019 - Medium purple light aroma of cherry and plum, flavor cherry cranberry acidic and alcohol and light oak finish - short finish
    For the price maybe a nice value

    April 16, 2019 - Underripe red fruits, boysenberry, black currants, tart plums. Light-medium tannin, some sweeter raisin at the start of a medium+ finish

    January 5, 2019 - By the glass at the BA lounge, Seattle. Just opened.
    Young black fruit, fresh. Round wine and sort of feels designed to be enjoyed young. Supple , rich, good use of oak, light raisiny touch. Decent 86-87

    October 5, 2018 - Needs a little time to mellow out but if properly aerated it's quite a bargain at circa $8ish.
