Decanted for approximately 45 minutes. Great fruity and floral nose of strawberry, raspberry, and a hint of carnations. Yummy palate of juicy red fruits, some vanilla, and baking spice. Definitely a fun, easy drinking wine. Qpr remains poor however. Drink up as I can't see this one getting any better.

Not a typical Carneros cherry bomb. Complex but muddled and subdued. A lot going on and could age a lot longer, but didn’t feel tight or in need of softening. That said there was no wow element. Good wine.

Decanted for 3 hours. Strawberries and flowers on the nose. Light and fruity on the palate. To me, this is a fun wine. Lighr in body and structure. An easy drinking quaff. Way over priced for the quality. I liked it better at Artesa. A nice kick off to a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. The wines only got way better after this one.

This wine offers intense aromas of dark cherry and strawberry. On the palate, it displays luscious red fruit with notes of raspberry, cranberry, macerated strawberries, and a hint of clove and white pepper. The mouthfeel has exceptional silkiness with smooth tannins creating a soft, velvety texture. Sweet oak notes add breath and dimension making this the perfect wine to age in the cellar.

Drank during super bowl. Good very drinkable. Nothing special or wow about it though.
