1.5 hour decant (little fine/cloudy sediment). A gorgeous dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: very aromatic notes greet you with black plum/blackberry, forest floor, leather, floral, menthol, cedar, and milk chocolate. Taste: silky, rich, lush wine with brambly red plum, graphite, leather, chocolate mocha, and a spiced dried herbs/cigar box long finish. YUM! — 13 days ago

Almost identical to my previous note but more refined and bolder. I was probably too tough before as this rocks! — 3 months ago

Who wants a pour? This is my perfect everyday sipper. It's getting easier to find at retail, so let's drink up!

Surprisingly robust and fresh for a 2017. Aromas of baking spices, strawberries, hint of vanilla and subtle notes of oak. Flavours of strawberry, vanilla and spiced fruit cake with soft tannins and a vibrant acidity. Paired with roasted chicken thighs in a balsamic cherry sauce. — 4 months ago

Christmas dinner accompaniment, one of the finest reds we have had all year. Full, rich, balanced and nice tannins. Can't wait for the next one. — 9 months ago

Wow. Just classically awesome gg out of the gate.

Nose: screaming white and yellow flowers. So intense. A dusting of powdered minerals. Perfect. As this opens gods white flower perfume. Intense. Clean. Perfect.

Palate: perfection on the attack. Minerals form yellow flowers and stone fruits. Amazing density. Pulls no punches. Utterly delicious. Perfect balance.

A textbook nahe Riesling.

Honestly it’s so delicious I want to guzzle a bottle with a bag of potato chips. But it’s so good I just want to smell it’s all night.
