Great wine!! — 24 days ago
1 hour decant. A striking dark magenta color. On the nose: subtle notes of dark cherry, smoke, pencil shavings, earth, and hints of leather/tobacco. Taste: dark cherry/plum, earth, oak, bitter chocolate, with a slightly astringent tobacco and dried herbs finish. — 3 months ago
Golden straw color with lemon rind and white flowers on the nose. Light citrus, minerals, modest acidity and a touch of oak. Layered, balanced and wonderfully site-specific. — 14 days ago
Very good…Slightly too much oak? — a month ago
Full body. Nice nose. Smooth. Enjoying a glass at the Olde Brick House in Rochester, MN. — 6 days ago
A bit dry and lacking in the usual layers of flavor. Thinner than others — 18 days ago
Resolved tannins, and well balanced. However the fruit was just too over the top for me. Think blackberry shake. — 2 months ago
Quite rich. Drank it young, it would have been better in a few years. Would buy again to see. — 3 months ago
