February 9, 2017 - Unique Bordeaux blend with Pinot which means it's not a Bordeaux. Pleasant surprise from 58th street wine in manhattan.

March 30, 2014 - 2nd Gastronomy Fair 2014; 3/30/2014-3/31/2014 (Intercontinental Hotel): Clear deep ruby color.
The nose is clean, showing med+ intensity, thick crunchy red fruits, spicy, clove, nutmeg, a few black fruit notes, sweet oak and jammy, ripe strawberry, tobacco hints, youthful.
The wine is dry, med+ body and med intensity, med+ alcohol and med acidity, tannins med+ but round, balanced with smoke notes, ripe red fruit character, med/med+ finish, concentrated in an ethereal way.
Outstanding quality, premium price, drinking now but could hold. An overperformer of a bottle, first time I rate it the same as Clos Apalta which I always prefer.
