Dark fruit, Liquorice and hit a of brett. Still some fruit, good acid and fine tannins. This wine aged beautfiully. Everyone loved it and it disapeared fast. Wish I had some more..... great winebid score. Well worth the $60 I paid for it.

M Som fr Pinions, Aspen said they just purchased this a month ago ($180 for a $35 auction bottle) so provenance could be questioned. Our bottle was definitely end of life but showed a lot of evolution. I've had a lot of Santa Cruz mountain wine. It's the most age-worthy in CA.

4th Saturday Group brown bagger (Rich & Dana's): Garnet core, showing some age toward the edge. Aromas of red currants, roasted beller peppers and black fruits. Well-balanced, with lovely dark fruit, plum and roasted herb flavors. Long finish.

Balanced, aromatic, black cherry taste and smell, still at its peak
