  May 12, 2024 - Not scoring this bottle as there was definitely some bottle variation from the first one I had. This had a baked/stewed fruit profile and seemed a little grapey almost. Possible storage issue?

  April 28, 2024 - Popped and poured. A bit darker than I expected. Slightly closed on the nose initially, this opened up after about 20-30 minutes and showed a mix of dark red cherry and plum, hints of floral notes. Similar flavors on the palate with a bit of rocky minerality on the palate, almost a touch salty. Medium+ acid and tannin. Very nice wine, especially for the price paid, and I think will continue to improve in the bottle.

  April 11, 2024 - Yum. What a nice surprise. There's red and darker fruit with a rocky, earthy note running throughout. Medium body, medium+ acid, medium tannins but they are supple. Finish is medium+ in length. I'm so glad I have more of this.
