  Beautiful aroma wafting from the glass - red and black cherries, cranberry, strawberry, dried flowers, cedar shavings - incredibly complex. Rich, dense flavor mirrors the aroma with a honey, caramel, black tea finish. Some earth and spice too. Rich, but not too concentrated or overbearing. Lovely balance with lovely acidity and fine tannins.
  
  Really quite exceptional. Drinking well now but no rush.

  Great nose. Plums, berries, jam and spice flavors. Not over the top with heavy ripe fruit as others in CA. A nice, medium weight wine. Good balance of herbs and fruit. A great spice and cranberry finish. Likely getting even better with more cellar time.

  Ruby color with medium legs. Violet, cherry and cedar on the nose. Raspberry, cola and orange peel on the palate. Long polished finish.

  At Steve’s. Soft tasty red fruit. A bit short on the finish but otherwise very nice. The WS Estate rarely disappoints.

  Extremely complex red berry bouquet, almost a perfume. Red cherry, cranberry, pomegranate, raisin, lemon peel, vanilla, and some green bramble notes. Round, deep and complex. Extremely well balanced with nothing out of place. An excellent acidic backbone.
  
  This is drinking very well right now but is still going places — patience will be rewarded. Hold.
