Soft tannins and balanced acidity make way for layers of blackberry, dried fig, plums, cocoa, mint and cedar. Nice wine with a long enjoyable finish. I'm surprised it's held up this long in the cellar, but it really has improved with age.

Sad that this is our last bottle, as this has finally come into its own. The slightly jammy quality noted before has been replaced by a density that complements the dark notes and hints of coffee in the midpalate through to the finish. Delicious.

Dark purple color with lots of ripe fruit and spice. Medium to full bodied. It still has grippy tannins. This wiine is not the most complex or balanced, but it’s a real crowd pleaser.

A nose of dark fruits and spices, dark purple in color. A full bodied red blend, with blackberry, black cherry, some cocoa and spice on finish. As most Orin Swift wines, a very interesting label. www.winelx.com

Wine was very good once it opened up. Plenty of dark fruit and depth.
