    January 1, 2015 - This wine is at its peak. Was very enjoyable with a lot of fruit (cherry, plums, berry) in the front but with a pleasant mineral finish. Great with a Manchego Cheese and a Chicken Marbella.

    May 6, 2010 - Light red color. Pure raspberry on the nose. Notes of Raspberry and spices with a dollop of vanilla and a crisp 20 second finish that reflects all of this. Light-bodied. Excellent.

    April 6, 2009 - A little tight a first...after decanting for two hours the wine aromatically opened up with red fruit. On the palate rather silky with a good balance of acidity and tannins. Very soft mouthfeel, good finish but lacking in the midpalate. Nice wine but nothing special.

    March 27, 2009 - Listen to my voice - Decant for 2 hrs before trying!!! From 375ml, I drank the better part of this bottle thinking a solid 88pts. 2 Hrs later this is an easy (phone sex easy) 92 pts. Delicious, i'll save the descriptives for your own tasting. Seek this out! it is delicious after a two hour decant. I will buy all I can.

    November 9, 2008 - nice bright ruby, w/ a touch of garnet. fruit forward nose of cherry, raspberry, mocha, and menthol. a structured well ballanced palate w/ sour cherry, nutmeg ,earth, and licorice. good solid finish but a little bitter on the back end. could use a little more aging to smooth out the tightness
