June 21, 2011 - Inky purple, blackberry, cassis nose. Medium dry, fruity lacking much acid or tannins at this time. Smooth mouth feel, just a little jammy.

May 31, 2011 - Medium ruby with lavender rim, weak nose with a little acetone. Dry, medium fruit and body with petrol notes, dry tannins on the PnP soften on day two, did not notice the brett this time. Much better on the second night.

May 26, 2011 - Nice ruby, bright fruit, some initial brett, dissipates with air which indicates that it is time to drink up, no more aging will help.

June 8, 2010 - Ruby with oaky nose. Dry, fruity on the opening. Hints of bitterness, astringency on opening soon give way to velvety, medium body, good mouth feel, light tannic finish. Improved greatly in the glass. On the second night, it is a very pleasant wine with good mouth feel. All the odd flavors have mellowed, leaving just a fresh raspberry/blackberry medium body, fruity finish with light tannins. Very pleasant.
