Deep cherry nose, camphor, tannins very present but works really well with the tea-like herbal style. Medium bodied, balanced acidity, not very sweet. Lots of complexity. — 5 years ago

9.3

Low acidity, medium-high sweetness, and quite full bodied without feeling sluggish and encumbered. Intense dark fruit - plummy. Lush. Tannins resolved. Distinct after taste of port in the finish. Would score higher but still comes across a tad alcoholic. — 5 years ago

9.1

Pine needles on the nose, typical mid-weight Bordeaux blend but done well. Pronounced minerality and a bit of sage on the finish. Lacks the lusciousness of a top end super-Tuscan, but easy to forgive because price/value is excellent. Edit: after half a day in the bottle, it developed a very interest burnt coffee beans punch. — 5 years ago

Utterly gorgeous. Toasted coconut and apricot nose. Bracing acidity balances the syrupy, complex sweetness. — 5 years ago

Lemon curd nose, a really fun rounded sweetness and acidity with a fleshy (one might say creamy) palette. — 5 years ago

8.7

Pepper in the nose, sour cherry, the minerality outweighs the mild sweetness. Pleasant and well constructed, but not remarkable. — 5 years ago
