November 5, 2023 - Two hour decant. Very deep dark intense magenta color. Blackberry, plum, blueberry, dried mushroom, cocoa, and subtle licorice. Dry, full bodied palate, with great, dusty acidity. Firm, slightly grippy tannins on the longish finish.

August 10, 2023 - Wow. Tastes like a $300 bottle of CS. Aromas of blackberry , black cherry, licorice and graphite. Full-bodied with grippy tannins and a 30-second finish. Gorgeous wine!

December 26, 2022 - Two hour decant. Very deep dark ruby magenta color. Boysenberry, blackberry, German chocolate cake, dried fig, wool, bay leaf, and subtle walnut on the nose. Very dry, velvety palate, with granular acidity. Firm tannins on the longish finish.
This kept improving over an hour of drinking. It’s slightly brooding, but the fruit is rich and expressive. Nice complexity for the price point.2 people found this helpful Comment -

September 9, 2022 - Eggplant purple. Staining the glass and my whole palate. Sediments. Rush of rich dark fruits on the nose and palate adding cigar wrapper, tobacco, melted licorice and tar.
So much intensity on the palate, plush, later adding some mushrooms and fallen autumn leaves notes.
We blind tasted with The Debate and this just stood out more and it’s half the price. So a little QPR win there.
