  May 9, 2023 - Deep opaque purple/inky black in the glass, aromas of black fruit, vanillin and wood jump from the glass, palate is dry, over extracted and ripe Napa style, cassis, boysenberry, juicy black plum, vegetal note of green pepper, animal notes of leather, hint of bramble, cedar, anise as it warms, acidity is high, tannins velvety, full bodied, long coating finish. Alcohol is warming and a bit hot. This is an unapologetic Napa fruit bomb great with pizza.

  November 19, 2022 - Little over 2 years since my last bottle. Much better this time around. More integrated, more dark fruit. Not a big wine and tannins are still strong. 90+

  February 8, 2021 - Wow, this Napa wine is super opaque and dark purple-it looks like Welch's grape juice. I can smell fruit flavors about a foot away from the glass, it's wafting over and I think I'm going to like it. Yup, I do. Saturated with blackberry notes, I also get blueberry essence. On the palate it is delicious. Layers of blackberry, blueberry and cassis. Very primal, extracted and yummy. Lithe tannins appear on the mid palate but this wine is really juicy, the acidity really has a grip. Deft use of oak keeps this wine interesting without overplaying tertiary flavors. The finish turns quite dry with the tannins really starting to make themselves known. Overall a nicely balanced wine with good structure, great fruit and decent cellaring capacity. I would drink this blend of Syrah, Malbec, Zin, Merlot etc till 2028 with a big ole T-bone. 92 points from me make this $50 wine a 5 star effort.
