  Nose of Mountain berry, Pine, Evergreen, forest,
  With air showing berry pie. Very fresh and distinct. Palate shows tannin, with iron and clay notes. Hard cherry fruit, touches of oak. Some medicinal notes. Very distinct and well made. Showing the uniqueness of the region.

  Decanted at 11am, drank at 7pm. This wine is huge and mouthfilling with rich fruit. And, still very heavy tannins. Don't have a ton of detailed descriptors except that the finish went on forever, supported by the tannins that also went on forever. Great with food but so tannin-heavy that the glass after dinner seemed out of balance.

  Very rich in berry and other dark fruits flavor. Reasonably long lasting and good balance between tannin and alcohol levels.

  Full bodied. Black cherry, boysenberry. Touch of tobacco. Bright acidity. Decanted 1 hour, which may be why it was better than last bottle.

  OUTSTANDING! In a perfect window, tannins totally smooth, lots of plum, pencil and dark cherries. Flavor profile and consistency is well integrated. Nice long finish. Drink now, might just get a bit better but great now
