  December 26, 2023 - Love this blend by Linden! Had it with grilled tuna. Has great friut and acidity. Still has years left! A dinner guest preferred this wine over a 2005 Pio Cesare Barolo!!

  April 21, 2023 - This was incredibly well balanced. Bright cherry and dried herbs. The palate is almost cool and refreshing red fruit before you feel the tannins and acidity being this to life. We had this with ribeye. Perfect. This has many years ahead of it.

  September 6, 2022 - I can’t tell if it’s in a dumb phase, but seems a little flat on the palate even after a 30 min decant. Still very primary.

  August 16, 2020 - Tasted at the Winery. About 60% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Petit Verdot. Medium tannin, medium acidity. Nose has some cream, black raspberry, cassis and a hint of spice. palate is soft and round, especially when compared to the Hardscrabble red I had just before. It has crushed blackberries, vanilla, chocolate and some gravelly minerals. On the finish it seems more red fruited and slightly metallic. Nice wine with plenty of life ahead though probably most enjoyable over the next 10 years or so.
