First time trying this wine and HIGH expectations. Hit it with oxygen from winepro2 to start. On the nose, it just smells dark and brooding. First sip. Wild blueberries and I mean wild. Like right out of the forest. Good juiciness but also some grip and spicyness. I originally thought tobacco or bramble or even just I can taste the woods. My wife said it was spicy and had a kick. I thought it was super smooth. Did not notice the oak at all. Very fragrant with blue and dark fruits. Very dense. I almost couldn’t taste the seasoning of the food as if the wine overpowered the food. Kinda wild. Overall enjoyed this and was easy to drink — a month ago
Gorgeous wine with a touch of oak and sweetness (no residual sugar). Elegant smooth and delicious. No acidic fruit or overwhelming fruit. Just good — a month ago
Orangish pinkish color. Array of red fruits from strawberries to cranberries. Paired strangely well with tortilla chips. — 2 days ago
Solid. Needed something salty and sharp to shine — a month ago
At first pour - this wine was bricked and burnt orange. Tasted gross frankly. Hit it with the winepro2 oxygen and it magically began to open up and reveal something. Paired it with some Parmesan cheese and then it started humming. Enjoyed with a lemon garlic Parmesan pasta. Alls well that ends well. — a month ago
Solid cab. Not too fruity. Well balanced. Good deep flavors. Paired well with tuna crispy rice — 12 days ago
Recent addition to the cellar. Solid wine after gassing it with winepro2 oxygen. Good blue ripe fruit. Some vanilla but not too much. Pie like but with enough savory and depth to balance it out. — a month ago
Savory and big on the nose and first taste. This wine then transforms and shows fruit in the back end with a touch of red raspberry and is ultra smooth. Nothing hot. Nothing too acidic. Super elegant. Really enjoyed this wine with food and then on its own. — a month ago
