    February 20, 2015 - Garnett to purple in color; slightly flinty, stone fruit... Bing cherry, somewhat jammy; a little bight, bright, but with a smooth finish. Delicious.

    August 9, 2011 - Deep dark ruby/purple core, narrow garnet meniscus.

    Brambly blackberry on the nose, with black cherry, fresh plum, and just a hint of herbaceousness, vanilla, smoke.

    Palate consistent with nose, along with medium, velvety but grippy tannins and commendable acid. Tannins are sweet, but not overripe, and I wonder if there may also be a little RS.

    Impressive medium to long finish, with assist from light oak and juicy acid carrying the fruit along.

    Not super complex, but much better than the average CT scores here led me to believe. No reason for me not to give this 90 points.
