The sadist part of this tasting note is this was my last bottle. It has been a beautiful, superbly made wine since its release. Silky Tannins and full bodied, with a long finish of berries and spice with the fine underlying reach of the terrior this juice came from. Great Job!

A bit aciditic and hard when first opened, but after 30 minutes more integrated and smooth. After an hour, spectacular, with lots of nuance and a beautiful, full finish.

pop and pour; decanted and drank over an hour or so. Probably will give the next one about an hr or two decant. but, this one rich and jammy wine. High marks for delicious factor. Needs some time to flesh out secondary characteristics, but tastes so good now, why wait. First time with this winery. VN.

Spectacular -- rich and long finish, but really smooth and not over-the-top. Lots of dark berry and spice, and the tannins really round the wine out nicely.

Lots of floral scents and light fruit smells, smooth and rich on first taste with a great, long finish. Wonderful.
