    October 30, 2020 - rich aroma, full ripe taste with a soft hollow, mild body, not much there for the price, poor value

    April 23, 2020 - Medium Body, Blackberry, raspberry, bay leaf, cedar. Nice finish. Very Enjoyable.

    October 9, 2019 - Peju & Gun Bun Wines: Medium purple color. Nose boasts juicy black cherries and deep currants, topped in roasted coffee, vanilla, mint, and a cool mix of black pepper and red pepper flakes. Full but smooth on the palate with moderate acidity, this is fun, fresh, and tangy, but shows plenty of depth, and solid complexity. Tart red and black currants and blueberries, juicy and suave, with notes of tobacco, mint and mocha. Fun now but could develop well over the next few years easily. Includes 9% Petit Verdot and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged 17 months in 40% new French oak.
