It's pretty sad when you drink so much wine, you are too busy to even add tasting notes but this wine seriously deserves attention. It is really quite outstanding. The color is deep ruby and the nose is quite complex offering up scents of cherry, mint, cedar, vanilla and sweet tobacco. In the mouth the wine attacks the palate with firm tannins before giving way to a cornucopia of fruits such as raspberries, blueberries, pomegranate as well as cherry. It finishes strong with cedar box knocking on the door and certainly promises a bright future ahead!timistic future a
I really think this wine is in the perfect place right now. It has really improved dramatically since I last tasted it. The wine boasts a lovely deep cranberry color while offering up notes of wildflowers, strawberries and herbs. On the palate the wine offers up wonderful acidity and fine tannins before giving way to a wine which has lovely balance. Strawberries, rhubarb and tart cherry come to life as the wine lingers effortlessly.

This is my last bottle of this wine. It has held up incredibly well in my opinion. There is still an abundance of fruit and the wine fills the palate with dark fruits before finishing rather quickly. This should be consumed within the next couple of years as I do not see it improving.
