January 23, 2011 - Garnet, medium plus intensity, no rim variation, substantial sediment. Dark cherry and black pepper on the expressive nose. Plush tannins buffered by bright acidity. Medium-plus body. Dense fruit on the midpalate. Quite nice.

January 27, 2010 - Deep ruby garnet in color. Red and dark fruit aromas of cranberries and raspberries with a spicy note of pepper. Soft forward tannins , a slight hint of tea leaves with a lingering finish of bittersweet chocolate.
