Dense purple, moderately extracted pigment. Raspberry, blackberry, strawberry jam, green and black olive notes in nose. Raspberry, blackberry and tart cherry flavors, green olive, cool mint and dusty herbal notes, a touch of tar, bright acidity, light rounded seed tannins in finish initially. A lot of yummy flavors here, a greatest hits collection of traditional Cali red wines. Lovely complexity here — 5 years ago
v22. Very nice. Soft, fresh cut melon nose. Creamy, apple and lime fruit. Bright, round, soft oak finish. Enjoyable. — 8 months ago
Lovely and deep. Has a fairly rich and mellow taste which is very pleasant compared to the light and uninspiring nose. The finish is slightly deep but has zing to it. I am a bourbon drinker and have 40+ bottles in my collection and can say that I completely forgot this was finished in bourbon barrels. I guess if you're thinking bourbon while you're drinking, you get a sense of it in the exhale at the end of the finish, but that's about it. But there must be some influence in keeping the taste a bit rich. Whatever the bourbon is doing, I like it. — 4 years ago

Peach, pear, and tangerine over orange blossom and jasmine. Slightly sweet but still acidic enough to balance a cheeseboard or meal. — 6 months ago
