Secondary hints of Mediterranean scrub, tobacco, as well as floral notes (violet, lavender). Velvety on the palate with a bit of leather and balsamic. Great wine. — 2 months ago

9.3

Major old world tertiary notes coming through, reminiscent of a burgundy, but this wine has more force and body, and lacks the elegance of its French cousins. You’d never mistake it for a California pinot, that’s for sure. — 2 months ago

This wine is aging gracefully. Secondary and tertiary notes coming to the fore. Floral/spicy nose that is so fragrant. The cherry has turned dark, supported by more spice, clove, cinnamon. Truly an excellent wine. — a year ago
