Drank with Chaele and John with chicken and carrot. Fantastic, excellent length and well developed hints of leather and earth. Still has some fruit but I wouldn’t say fruit driven at this point. Tanins are soft and well integrated but still clean the palate with food. An outstanding bottle sent from Vinic

Brambly, herby nose. Dark fruit -- less than earlier in its life, I'd guess -- and anise on the palate. If you're holding, I'd drink this now, though. I really like what these folks are doing.

Time has served this well. It's a nice drinking wine. I enjoyed this but was surprised that it seemed to have toned down a bit from the last bottle. I'll try the rest tonight and see if I have similar notes.

Very impressive considering the reasonable price. Cool climate elegance. White pepper and a bit of spice. Great food wine.
