July 16, 2015 - Cherry , blackberry, lilac, balsam, espresso, dark soil, white pepper, garrigue. Fresh on the nose, light-medium bodied palate. Juicy with excellent cut and a savory, grippy finish. This vibrant wine is at the cusp of entering prime drinking. Drink now if you like it on the young side, but if you like your tannins resolved, give it 1-2 years. It should hold for at least 5-7+.

January 22, 2015 - Rich and lush with deep, dark fruit. Tarry with a distinct licorice note and lots of pencil lead, it also had a firmly acidic backbone. Quite appealing with venison black bean chili, but still has years ahead of it.
