  April 23, 2024 - A wow wine. A lot richer and fuller than 2020 Carlisle Mancini consumed immediately before, but in balance and not at all overdone. Absolutely on par, qualitywise, with Carlisle SVDs, at a lower price. Great QPR. 94-95

  March 25, 2024 - So tasty. This was a little reluctant to emerge for the first 30 minutes or so… eventually did and say two was fantastic. Nice bright red fruits. Cherry, raspberry. Definitely fruit forward but the clarity of bright red fruits is the driver here. Nice zip of acidity and some light tannin. Medium bodied, maybe a bit more weight. I was craving one of these and now I want another.

  January 12, 2024 - Still excellent 6 months after the first bottle. Fruit forward and drinking beautifully. No need to wait. 2021s are early drinking zins.

  December 9, 2023 - Supple and vibrant, with length and a full body. Fresh upon the entry, with a round middle. Boysenberry, raspberry, orange creamsicle, red rocks, chalk and teak. It’s rather easy to crave the next sip. Gorgeous today, and has the foundation to last. Another stunning cuvée. Drink now - 2033
