November 21, 2020 - So good! Beautiful garnet color!
Mix of dark berries and a hint of mineral. Very nice. -

Tasted non blind.
Dark garnet to purple color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Light nose of plums and berries. Light palate of berries, herbs and iron. Light acidity, light tannin, medium body. Drink now. No rating. Bottle seemed a bit off at best, certainly didn't match the profile of this wine. -

May 19, 2018 - Not from temperature controlled storage. This is getting to the end of its better years and for some was too old for their taste. The “drink now“ sign for me was that the nose was much more evolved than the palate on pop and poor but within an hour it seemed the palate had caught up. Drink up.
