Dark garnet red. Raspberry puree and baking spice nose. Light to medium bodied, loads of sour cherries, cranberries, drying tannins, savory herbs, and a medium finish. Still going strong, but unlikely to get better.

Rusty red color. Raspberry, spice, and forest nose. Medium bodied, lots of strawberries, pepper, cranberry juice, well integrated tannins, a bit of heat, and a fruity, medium plus finish. One of the best sub-$15 bottles of wine produced in California.

Unlike the last bottle, this one was great! Cherry, cranberry, earth, leaves, etc. Great balance and a great food wine (although we opted not to pair with the Thai curry we made for dinner).

Somewhat but not completely corked. Thinner than it should be with more astringency and alcohol. Some air seems to be helping, but in the end it's corked.
