I agree with CATOWN1 - Still way to early to drink. Could wait at least 3 more years. Dark plum/black cherry fruit seems to be well balanced with leather and hints of tobacco, chocolate and some kind of spice. I had detected something floral like lavender and cedar on the nose when first opened. Medium long finish. Needs time to dial down the heat from the high alcohol content, but most Krupp Brothers wines are that way.

Oak, plum and vanilla nose. Dry and mildly acidic. Black cherry, plum and vanilla with a hint of tobacco. Medium-mild tannins. Was better on the second day. At $16 I might just get a few more.

A Chenin Blanc that drinks more like a Chardonnay. Nose is floral and of pear and honey. Somewhat full-bodied. Tastes of pear, honey, peach, green apple, orange and lemon. Ever so slightly sweet. Nice, but I prefer a more acidic less fruit forward style.
