Boy. Did I enjoy this. 87 rating from others is a joke. This 2014 was delightful. She opened up nice after an hour. Spicy, tannic but still well rounded with nice berry flavors. Don’t drink a lot from Washington state. Might have to change that. 91.

Bordeaux blend with a little Syrah splashed in. 20 months in French Oak. That's allot of dark fruit and smoke and spice. Opens up in the glass. Red cherry fruit once it opens up. Tastes like Horse Heaven Hills through and through. That's really good. And good structure and body.

Seems closed at present. May need a little time. Tasted again the next day with not much difference. Good acidity for food, but not much fruit or complexity.

Warm dark fruit aromas. Earthy dark raspberry and cherry fruit with good acidity. Nice lengthy finish.

Nice soft fruit to this, tasty, works it out. Thought it was $40.
