Faded very quickly. Fruity at first, almost grapey. Very little tannins and anything to draw you in for a second sip. Probably missed this one by a year or two

Nice wine, but a little disappointed as it was lacking structure and depth. Ruby garnet color, light fruit notes - should be a bit deeper, finish was light. Drank this after a split of Quintessa 09. The Quintessa had much more character and depth.

Very dark red in color with a some what muted nose of red fruit. Tasted strawberries and red cherries very much at first but this seemed to fade a little with time. The tannins were softening but I did notice a tinniness on the finish. This wine seems to be fading.

Delightful! Red fruits, long finish, still very bright in color and taste.

Better with a decant, lots of red berries and cherries with a sharpness on the finish that softened but never disappeared.
