March 5, 2024 - This is a solid wine, and this bottle showed much better than the one I drank 4 years ago.
It is fruit forward (and the dark black fruits are delicious), but there was a building mid palate and structure this time around that suggests that this simply needed a bit more time to develop in bottle.
Not a fruit bomb at all, with enough structure to keep me wanting to go back for another glass (I would have, but the wifey was eyeballing me to ensure I didn't take down the whole bottle. So... left a glass or two for tonight).
Would buy again if found at a decent price... -

March 15, 2023 - Pours dark purple into the glass. Blackberry, vanilla and sage on the nose and palate. Fairly fruit forward. Nice little burst of juicy acidity on the finish with soft tannins. Very good but fairly one dimensional.

June 7, 2022 - Drier than I expected. Opens up nicely. Red fruit on the nose, good balance. Cherries.
