Bright. Nice acid. Low on fruit.

Drank with rib-eye topped with blue-cheese crumble. Amazing wine. Screw capped but no hint of reduction. Great fruit and assertive but not aggressive tannins made this wine a great accompaniment to the meal. Too bad it was my last bottle.

Better than expected, and better than when it was young.

my taste has changed and this is no longer pleasing to my palate. Seems a bit sharpish and lacking in fruit, others like it a lot. what can I say. I used to love it. It does soften over tgime. I have had a bottle open for a week and it is much softer now.

A bouquet of roses and honey. Powerful explosion of grape and vine, a tourniquet of purple lips and fingers, an electric bass vibrato on the center of my tongue. Wild boysenberry pie. Ancient shoe leather, soaked to life in sweetened bear blood. Over the top. Astonishing.

always a favorite. It is so much better than when I last tasted it. A year makes a big difference.
