As others have noted, despite the drinking window being open, this is still tight upon opening. It needed a good 45 minutes to relax and open up. Really really good at that point.

Enjoyed with chicken fajitas for Father’s Day. Delicious. A bit young and tight upon opening, but continued to improve with time. This will be a spectacular wine in 3-4 years. Glad I have more in the cellar!

Starting to soften, had one sip before others took the bottle down. Note to self pour myself first!

More tannic than the 2013, otherwise consistent notes, hard to judge in such a primary stage but the stuffing is there. Needs cellar time.

About equal parts Grenache/Syrah/Mourvedre. Pretty young, tight right now. Has potential.
