Found this older vintage at Wine Watch in Fort Lauderdale. Deep garnet red. Layered nose with notes of dark cocoa leaves, blackberries, boysenberry, a semi hickory smoke and something almost like truffles. Medium bodied with moderate tannins (6/10). Started off tight and crispy with strawberries and mountain berries. As it aired out some more earthy notes appeared with some wet dirt. Medium plus finish with a little greenery. Drink till 2020.

Kind of an interesting wine. Garnet red pour. This is a deeper and slightly darker wine than the 2011 non-proprietary. It is smoky and darker red fruit. But has some sharp acidity throughout... Is a bit out of balance. Some herbal character in the finish. I think this one really needs to be cellared a little longer but this is the only one I have. Makes me wonder if the 15 Mtn Proprietary I have is gonna outlive me!

Solid wine. Plum on nose, good fruit on palate, and decent length on finish.

Grant Long is a legit winemaker, this has big fruit and tannins. Needs another year to mellow
