Fantastic wine at it’s peak. Beautiful cherry, plum fruit flavors balanced by the underlying slight oak and spice finish. Tannins mellowed and each sip seemed to last on the palate for twenty seconds. Beautiful example of well done Shiraz.

Excellent! Pure silk texture, great depth and terroir. dense, dark fruit, but in no way overripe or port-like or over the top. Extremely well balanced. A real pleasure with and without food. Nothing cloying, but just great purity. Blows away the Lewelling cab from previous night.

Good, solid, but didn't blow anyone's socks off.

NIce wine that is aging well. My only real complaint is that I felt the american oak aspect of the wine was a bit too dominating.

Real big porty wine. Still has some balance.
