P/P: lush ripe cherry and strawberry, plenty of cola, some herb; some tea/heat on the finish; still a bit primary; a bit too big for the simple salmon and green salad; would have guessed warm weather pinot; there is enuf fruit density for this to further develop more typical on day two--firmer and less ebullient

A blockbuster from the first pour. Red berries and florals on the nose. The palate shows raspberries, black pepper, coffee, with velvety tannins and a lengthy finish. Rich and intense. It feels like it could go out years.

Pop and poured and followed over two days with an overnight visit to the refrigerator. Deep ruby color. Nose offers brown spice and an herbal note with ried berries. Good bright acidity with a savory forest floor woodsy intor and red berries. Nice vibrancy on the finish. Enjoyable.

big and full bodied; some complexity and length; a bit of heat on the finish; probably worth holding to see if this can become more sophisticated.

Showed very well; could've kept a few more years. Wish I had more.
