Outrageous good, nice red fruit on the start. Great middle and a slight tannin finish. My wife just loves this wine. — 4 years ago

Light floral and petrol on the front nose. Opens to beautiful peach and apricot. Nice lemon candy acidity on the front followed by juicy Meyer lemon on the palate. Beautiful wine from my friend Jim Lester. — 6 years ago

Super delicate Santa Cruz pn. Intense woodsy and spicy aroma, but a featherweight with tannins as smooth as satin. Like this a lot! — 3 years ago

9.4

Color of dark ruby, yet quite clear. Nose of vanilla, chocolate, a bit oak, and a bit strawberry. Taste is spicy, peppery, pure and round, dried strawberry, oak, a bit grassy, subtle and refined acidity, a bit salty bacon note, and low tannins. Aftertaste is smooth with more spicy note, oak, a bit plum and dates, a bit of mineral, and no edge savory. Only drawback is the nose, or she will be great. — 6 years ago
