Light bodied, red fruit flavors, acidic and never opened up, out of balance. Not an enjoyable experience and I had to look hard to come up with this rating. Did seem slightly better with aeration and paired with pork chops.

Decanted >2 hours. Initial aromas on the nose were deli meat, forest floor with a bit of funk. Definitely a lot of red cherry. Similar in the mouth. Wine is still young and we drank this with smoked baby back ribs. Probably unfair to the wine trying to hold up to that but after dinner it was better.
With the price point, comparing these to Alexana top PN's, Beaux Freres, Archery Summit and Domaine Serene. The jury is still out as to value at the price point.

Bright red berry and cherry from start-to-finish with a subtle stemmy spice note. Very well balanced with good+ length. Entering its peak drinking window, this will drink well for a decade+ to come.

Acidic and closed down. Drinkable but not memorable.

Step behind whites, less delineation.
