Eucalyptus, earth, and dark fruit on the nose, lower acid than I would have expected, chewy tannins and a long finish. Rounded and somewhat feminine-more like a St Joseph than a Cote Rotie.

A lovely wine. Soft and smooth on the front palate - big in the middle and a nice slow long finish. Drink now as I don't think it is going to get any better.

(Gramercy Cellars Inigo Montoya Tempranillo Columbia Valley) Abundant pencil shavings, savory notes, sweet spices, and red fruit on a nose that is somewhat closed at present. A very pretty texture on a palate marked by red fruit and vanilla. Among the best being produced in the state. 90% Tempranillo, 6% Syrah, 4% Mourvedre. Aged 15 months in American oak. 693 cases produced.

Earthy flavors, hit of berry. Maybe slightly past it’s prime, but still enjoyable

Muted aromas with just a hint of pretty strawberry. Fairly nondescript on the palate. I think the wine is past its prime.

Ruby hue; earthy, dark berry nose; dry, balanced, nicely-structured; not too overly sweet to tart; nice wine
