Dark, clear, garnet color. Big nose of spice and dark fruit. Light to medium body. Great acidity. Rich, dark taste. Very focused, almost lean, and spicy. Hints of tannin on the finish. This is drinking splendidly now despite its young age. It will be interesting to see how it develops.

A year later this is still drinking beautifully. Almost no tannin presence. Lovely spice and fruit. It still has a weak middle.

Pure dark fruits with some Oregon earth. Dark on the palate and as expected showing some oak, but a bit empty in the middle as well. Enjoyable.
