Complex and bursting with flavor, body, and thick fruit. Great value.

Was bottle number...well who knows. We drank it and nobody left a drop in the glasses so lets assume it was acceptable and leave it at that.

Dark and deep with layers of luscious fruits, with coaxing, the wine shows off its black cherry fudge, smoke, espresso, blackberry and sweet boysenberry character. Full-bodied, with layers of fruit, ripe, luscious textures and silky tannins, this is going to age for decades with ease. With all this power, allow it age for at least a decade and you will be amply rewarded.

Inky and opaque, the wine is all about chocolate-covered boysenberry, espresso, licorice, dark plum and darker cherry. Velvet drenched tannins, fat, salacious, opulent layers of perfectly ready, glossy fruits. This is the best wine produced here since 2000. You can feel the difference. It seems like everything has truly been dialed back.

Heady, sure. Dense, as well. The tannins are not as drying as one would expect, but they do ... dry out a bit. The oak. If the estate were to cut down a bit on the new oak, I would like this quite a bit. As it is, it is rather fun to taste, and a pleasant surprise.
