Deep dark garnet with hints of blueberry, licorice, expansive tannins, earthy with a long finish. Pair with a second bottle or wonderfully marinated steak or juicy chicken — 7 years ago
Round mouth feel, earthy, loam, mushroom, hints of cherry interspersed throughout. Malty smell on the nose, drinks with more minerality rather than fruity. Fine grainy tannins. Balanced. Old world vibe going on here. — 7 years ago
More lush than the 2009 with notes of plum, dark currant, red fruit and molasses. Weighty and wonderfully tannic you have to pair with a lovely seasoned rich lamb or second bottle because it goes too quickly. — 7 years ago
Lush, velvety, smooth start gave way to chalky medium tannic structure with lovely notes of cedar cigar box on the nose as well as grain. Very expressive and complex. — 7 years ago

Very earthy, mushroom, olive, dark almost maroon color. Raspberry tart on the velvety finish. Round mouth feel, smooth, sexy body. Heavier for a Pinot. Would recommend letting it aerate because it’s changes drastically. Very complex but fun for a wine, I’d invite it to my game night so I can be better than Susan (who sucks at charades because she’s sober) — 6 years ago
