Another wine that wasn't what I was expecting. Black cherry color. Tight nose that shows little fruit, some oak, and lots of minerals. In the mouth, muted and a bit grapey, though there is a nice flash of black cherry fruit. Uncompelling. This entire lineup was a far cry from what Gary Farrell did with these vineyards when he was rocking it. B

Flavors of red cherry, cranberry, brown spice. Medium body and silky smooth. Long finish.

Amazing wine. Had a taste on day two being open. Still showing great strawberry and a little rhubarb. Long finish. Acidity keeps this going.
