Following a 3 hour decant, sooooooo good. Blueberry, a bit of oak, soft tannins. I don't know why Calcareous can get blueberry flavors in its GSM, Syrah and Cabs, but it does. Great wine. Tough pricing outside of club pricing.

blueberries all over! Another spectacular Calcareous GSM. Ever since they replaced their winemaker in 2006 or 2008, the wines have just become sooooo good.

Another great bottle of Tres Violet. Each year Calcareous gets better. I buy this wine every vintage as a "go to " wine that is a home run every time.

One of the better Tres Violets I have had. Blueberry, vanilla, cassis. Just incredible GSM.
