  My first time tasting this producer- wanted to give it a try.
  Deep purple. Minimal meniscus. Tiny floating bits of sediment, pretty serious legs.
  Black cherry, dried plum, wet gravel and leather on the nose.
  More powerful dark fruit on the palate with cherry on the finish. Well balanced with light tannins that lingered on the finish. Great power and quite delicious. This should be good for several more years.

  Rounding out well, still dusty tannins, restrained power

  Powerful without bomb characteristics
  
  Takes a couple of hours to get into its stride, nice firm tannins

  Coming more into its own after a little bottle age. Dark aromatics, smooth assertive tannins, tar and black cherries.
  Stood up well as lone Washington bottle amid 3 Australians

  WS Rated 93 - agree with their descriptive review: "Plush and expressive, delivering a powerful blast of cherry & ripe raspberry notes against powdery tannins, finishing with a hint of cinnamon as the flavors well up. Best from 2017 through 2022" Amazing comparative value for the price
