This was a truly lovely wine. Made me sad to drink my last bottle. At least I shared it with friends.

Jammy and very zin-like. Very soft tannins. Certainly not too old.

For those still holding onto their bottles, now would be a good time to drink up. This wine used to be quite tight and tannic. It has mellowed out nicely over the years. The nose was peaty. Initial brett blew off to reveal a pretty, "smoky" wine exhibiting nice balance. As the other poster commented, I wish I had more.

One of those wines that's made me a big fan. I laid this one down for several years and it paid off. A great wine with the nose more like a solid Cab. Wish I had more.

Very different wine, best way to describe it is “grape-juice”. S liked it, I would pass.

Nice drinking a bit on the rustic side. Plummy fruit with some odd notes. A touch rough on the finish. Paired well. Paired: Pizza

sweet fruit taste, hint of vanilla, S loved it, although I thought it was too fruit forward, in a fresh cherry way.
