Medium ruby, elegant color, great finesse on the nose with red flowers, violet, cassis, cedar, a bit of menthol. Rich palate that shows well-balanced oak with air.

Last of the red wines at Table #2 at Oakton Wine Shops Bucket List Tasting.

Deep garnet red. Tight to start on the nose with earthy characteristics, rustic, dark cherries, leaves, mushrooms and a touch of barnyard. Needed some time to open up with more red berries. Rounded tannins (7/10) with quite a bit of acidity. Earthy palate with cherries, spices, touch of bell peppers and herbal notes. Medium bodied with a medium plus to long finish. Drink from 2019 till 2029.

A winner in the controversial 2012 vintage, still very young but with time a true gem. This blend of 59% CS, 28% Merlot, 8% CF, 5% Petit Verdot, has a deep garnet color, a multi layers nose compressed and rich, full of cases, cedar, coffee, dark chocolate, fresh herbs , spices and a light scent of barnyard, full body rich with firm tannins, yet silky and luxurious, long lasting dry finish that with no doubt will become magical with time, my score 91, drink 2019-2031
