    January 6, 2012 - Slightly corked nose. High toned acidity and a distinct metallic note on the palate. Dumped.

    April 26, 2011 - Gentle now, with the tannin and oak integrated, but this is poised, calm, and very lovely

    February 27, 2011 - Had a bottle with a veal chop at Rosewater Supper Club. On opening there was initially no nose whatsoever. Ruby red, just a hint of brick. After a few minutes it started to open and we had a delightful experience as this wine evolved over the night. On the nose initially, cooked beets (borscht almost) then red fruits and violets. The on the palate in sequence as the wine opened up: beets; violets; mushrooms, chocolate and forest floor; red fruits; and then dried cherries. The still-clear dregs at the end showed tannins then clean minerals. Quite a journey! I suspect a low acid level because the wine had almost a creamy mouthfeel, and yet it stayed fresh. Pretty darn good for a Fixin.

    August 16, 2010 - Light in color -- ruby/pink/rust combination. Good depth and richness on the nose -- dark fruit (black currant?, ripe black cherry?), coffee grounds, worcestershire sauce, clove perhaps? Surprisingly light on the palate given the nose. Tart dark fruit, with good acidity that hints at orange. Shortish finish. Perhaps it will flesh out as the evening goes, but this is nice, interesting and tasty.
