    October 30, 2023 - Fantastic and drinking very well right now. This is more full bodied with more weight than normal, but still had that feminine lushness with floral, red fruits, and baking spices from beginning to the end.

    December 12, 2020 - Floral nose, notes of baked blue fruits and gravel. Light in body and texture but that small percentage of Syrah is definitely present through the finish - savory with a black pepper spice that hits right at the top of your mouth. The wine should hold another three years easily though I’m not sure there’s reason to wait - this is drinking really well. Just as solid on night two.

    I never pull the trigger on a second bottle at release, I really should change that.

    May 1, 2020 - Green pepper and herbs on the nose, light bodied but layered with red cherry and raspberry, a little alcohol on the back end. Very nice

    August 22, 2019 - Light red in color. 13.2% ABV. Pretty nose of red fruits, anise and tar. Medium body with exceptional acidity. Light and fresh with bright fruit in spades. Bing cherry, strawberry, earth, gravel and pepper on the palate. Medium length on the finish. Unique and delicious. I really enjoyed this served at cellar temperature. Best over the next 3-5 years.
