    March 12, 2015 - P n P. Dark, no sign of bricking. Min fine sed. Very fruit forward with dark berries dominating, nice aromatics, not overpowering. Good structure, complimented grilled Tbone, taters n salad well. Held up well. Night 2, lost the freshness that it showed on nite 1. Drink or hold for short term.

    June 11, 2014 - Garnet in color with orange to sienna colored edges - shows it's age on appearance. Nose of plums and blackberry with Forest floor and mushrooms hiding on the back end. Palate is still fruit forward with notes of plum and dark fruit while an underlying cedar and woodsy flavor finishes a remarkably smooth wine. Beautifully integrated at this stage - very slight tannins on the finish, but would not hesitate to recommend to someone looking for a smooth red and steering away from a dry wine. Much better than expected!!
