Bright ruby red in the glass. Incredibly hedonistic nose. Very much Anderson Valley, which is what I love about this wine. Dark cherry, ripe raspberry, cola, and baking spice. Silky mouthfeel, with loads of depth to the flavors. Light tannins hold this together with medium acidity that, for some, could be too much in the background. It is stunning now and should deliver more nuance over time. This will keep for at least another decade. Lovely, for a new world style.

Austere acidity but lots of spice and berry. Firm tannin structure, berry fruit in mouth and finish with lingering tannins. Lovely wine but it needs food or cheese to shine.
