Good nose with lots of dark fruit. I'd recommend you decant this one as there was quite a bit of sediment. Tannins are a bit tight, but very good overall.

Dust and vibrant fruit on the nose, light on the front end but catches up on the back palate, with tongue-smacking dryness. Perfect with a flank steak with spinach and Gorgonzola. Held up well over two days.

Single Vineyard Russian River Valley (San Francisco): dark fruit, cherry, wood, herbs, on the nose. blackberry, cherry, oak, vanilla, toast, on the palate. medium finish. the pour at this tasting was minimal.

I'm a bit biased because I love Acorn wines. But this was just a good one. Fantastic texture, a bit dry, but wonderful fruit.

Popped and poured. Nose is not particularly expressive (one dimensional). Palate gives notes of dark fruit and spice. An enjoyable CF.
