January 18, 2023 - Delightful wine. Nose of a well aged wine, bit of musty wine cellar, but inviting. Balanced and smoth on the palet strong, but in control tanins that match up well with protiens. Nice lingering finish.

December 15, 2021 - Got this bottle in a mystery half case. Opened and let sit for an hour or so then pnp'd. The nose is all fruit. The palate was berries, cherry and some chocolate. A hint of spice on the finish which was moderate to long. Served with a simple roasted chicken.

March 26, 2021 - Stupid how drinkable this is. Blue and dark fruit on the nose and palate. Full body. Firm tannins that are pleasant and might improve with time, but this is clearly built for immediate consumption. Good stuff.

November 25, 2020 - Decanted for an hour or so.
Ripe black cherries, chocolate chunk, cassis, floral qualities, and some spice. Pleasant finish that is moderate in length. Has that Mike Smith touch but is not as high octane as the Myriad GIII or the Empyrean, which has more structure by comparison.
This wine seems to be more crowd pleasing for the masses and has a bit more elegance. If you have both wines, bring the 12c to a party and save the Myriad for more intimate settings.2 people found this helpful Comment
