Has a soft floral fragrance with notes of dark berries!
Drinks quite strongly and is intense right out of the gates. However, it does mellow out a bit…but still retains robust flavors of spice, dark fruit and tobacco leaf. — a month ago
Good right out the bottle and stayed that way for a couple of days. What a nice grape! Very underrated. Medium body with a bit of spice. Sweet with a balanced tannin. Day 2 showed more acidity which improved it further. Excellent vino. — 4 days ago
Needs a few more years to really soften, but an amazing and unique Cabernet - notes of cassis / currants, cedar, baking spices and pepper — 2 months ago
Initially gave a blast of bright red fruit and vanilla. 2 hours later, it had really hit its stride with the cherry melting into leather and long tannins. Excellent Toro value — 5 months ago
Pale ruby in color; cherries, raspberries, and dried leaves on the nose; high acidity; medium tannins; tastes like hibiscus, strawberries, and wet gravel with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it, but I do. — 17 days ago
Easy drinker & great with NY strip — 5 months ago

Peaking right now, don’t wait: amber bricking on edge, black & red fruit - deep reservoir of ripe intense aromas & flavors, baking spices, worn leather, licorice, mineral - so expressive, massive on palate, beautifully balanced, tamed from so many years in bottle. Perfect accompaniment to my Saturday night T-Bone — 23 days ago
