  January 17, 2024 - Rich, full body of black fruits. Great tannins but need more time to resolve.

  November 25, 2023 - 4th Saturday Group: Uptown Brown Bag (V&M's): Double blind. Deep garnet color. Perfumed and pretty, with notes of rose hip mixed with black and blue fruit notes. Fine tannins support black currant, chocolate and black cherry. Has a slightly ripe, plummy quality in the finish. Balanced. (J&T)

  June 24, 2023 - Not giving it a rating as it is still a baby and these were delivered hot. Arkenstone is standing behind their wine and sending me new in the fall, but I wanted to try it.
  
  This is a baby. Don’t bother opening for another year at least, maybe 2. Deep dark purple color, floral notes and cassis just leap from the glass. Fine tannins, currant and black berry on the palette.
  
  Can definitely see the potential in this and can’t wait to try the replacement bottles in a couple of years.
