Solid Sonoma coast but I should have just waited. Very acidic and tart on opening. The next day it was softer. A bit of earthiness on the nose, dehydrated strawberry, and a hint of vanilla after a medium length finish

Medium red garnet in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruits aromas of cherries, blueberries & strawberries with overtones of spice notes, earthy/dusty & some floral notes, herbs, cola, minerals & a touch of oak/vanilla in the background. Medium bodied with a very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, strawberries & raspberries with spices, cola, minerals & a slight hint of oak/vanilla. Long lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with extended airing but has the capacity for further development with additional aging.

Ruby color with slow legs. Light oak, cedar and cherry on the nose. Raspberry, cola and tea on the palate. Light leathery finish.

This was ok. Ripe personality yet not overly heavy. Kind of monolithic - youthful, fruity, flirty. (89)

Dark ruby
Nose of vanilla, strawberry
Strawberry, raspberries, on the palate
Medium acidity and medium tannins
Needs more time but is still good for being so young.
