February 27, 2023 - Sweet oak spice and chocolate leads on nose, with dark plums, violets and sage, m int, definitely appealing.
Palate uneven, starts with wet cedar then red cherry, orange peel, touch of coffee, m- finish, m+ acidity, m tannin. Awkward flavor profile.
Overpriced at $45 -

May 8, 2022 - So.....Small Lots #3.
On nose: notes of lead pencil and red plums.
On palate: both flavours above, enhanced, with baking spices, dried rose, pipe tobacco and cherry pits.
Very civilized alcohol( 13.6%) ....a fine balanced blend of Sangiovese, Barbera and Cabernet Sauvignon...in short Sandhill's answer to an Italian Toscana....the oak is prolific, but leaning closer to Old World than either the #1 or #2 , of this property, well done. -
