March 21, 2023 - Supple, and vibrant with layers of sweet, ripe, black plums, chocolate, licorice and smoke. Texturally, this is pure silk with a bit of chalk that is perfect for showing off all of its flawlessly ripe black cherries and plums with their licorice and chocolate accents. Priced from 100% old vine Merlot, this is going to be delicious on release, and it will be even better with age. Drink from 2023-2040.

May 22, 2021 - 92-94 vvPunkte (100% Merlot, 14.5% Alkohol, pH 3.6) In der Nase ein Gedicht, florale Noten duellieren mit dunkler Frucht, etwas Rauch, Röstaromen. Im Gaumen mit Volumen und Kraft, ein Mund voll Wein und dennoch ungemein frisch, die Tannine sind markant, jedoch seidig gewoben, verleihen eine sehr gute Struktur, hier kämpft die Kraft mit viel Finesse. Im Abgang mit eindrücklicher, aromatischer Länge, endet rotfruchtig und mit einer spicy Würze. Dürfte früh Spass machen und top reifen. 2025-2044 (April/Mai 2021)

May 20, 2021 - Deep in color, the wine hits you up with its bouquet of flowers, licorice, crushed rocks, red and black plums, smoke, and blackberries. On the palate, the wine is silky, refined, supple and fresh. The finish leaves you with dark cocoa-dusted plums, thyme and creme de cassis. The wine is produced from 100% Merlot and is aged in 50% new, French oak barrels. 92-94
