  December 20, 2010 - I completely agree with the other reviewer - this is one of the best Sangioveses in the state. Dark purple, almost like syrah. Lovely earthy, dark fruit nose. Wonderful spice and leather too. Flavor is packed with more dark fruit, cassis, leather. Big mouthfeel, super long flavor. Alcohols have settled down since it was bought. This would make my top 10 list of wines to own from WA state. Incredibly under the radar too.

  September 3, 2009 - The best WA Sangiovese I have ever had! Intense flavors of dark currants and extract.
  An incredible food wine which paired well with penne with kalamata olives and cherry tomatoes.

  December 20, 2008 - Intense black cherry, currents, tar, vanilla and extract. A well-balanced, big, beautiful wine.
  Can drink know if decanted for a couple of hours, or cellar for a few years. Loved it!
