FANTASTIC! My kind of wine. Full bodied cherry to purple fruit, with fine (slightly chewy) mouth filling tannin structure. A wine that one could say is built to age, but perfect for drinking now.

Amazing progression. Tasted over last 2 years with the help of the coravin. Tonight was the night to go all the way. Wonderful nose of blueberry and brambles. Medium/full body with red and blue fruits. Mouth-coating but refined tannins make it oh so delicious.

Medium body, good acid and soft blue fruits but relatively muted overall. Feels like it is entering a dumb phase. Much less exuberant than the first year in bottle.
