  April 28, 2014 - Color - garnet with a slight halo. Aroma - medium red fruits, not much else. Decent structure and well balanced. The grape blend suggests Bordeaux but the style is light southern mediterranean

  December 1, 2013 - Visually almost Pinot Noir like. Straightforward nose of stewed dark berries, and hint of chocolate. Bigger in mouth than was expecting. Overall pretty nice.

  April 29, 2013 - Weekly tasting group #070; a mixed set of red wines. (@ CvR): Clear ruby red with a slightly carmine rim. The bouquet is fruity, but also a bit reticent. Creamy mouth feel with ripe red fruits, some sweet spices, vanilla and raspberries. A touch of sweetness, soft acidity and mild tannin. A nice, but not really exclusive wine.

  November 17, 2011 - This wine was rather impressive for the price. Nose was typical Musar nose of sweet cherries, and old concrete led me to think this was going to be a typical Musar. Light, almost gamay-esque color led to a soft, and somewhat flabby mouthfeel. Granted it had Musar qualities, but it lacked the earth-ness that I find so mesmerizing about the olders musars I have. Unfortunately, this wine just wasn't what I had expected it to be. I think of it as a "Entry level Musar", it lacked the complexity and structure that its big brother portrays.
