Classic case of "I read great things about this wine" that just didn't pan out. I loved all the character but, for me, it was just watery. Maybe this one bottle?

The nose is refined and soft and the palate is, as well. All the elements are there. It's showing quite nice but in a few years, thus will be outstanding.

This was an okay wine for a decent price. I enjoyed it, but not my favorite. Not bad by any means!

This wine has layers of complexity with a balance of ripe black fruits (currants, blackberries) and oak (cedar) with smoke and pencil lead. Crisp acidity and plush tannins with this wine enjoyable now.

Ripe and sweet-fruited, buy finishes dry and long. Ideal with Fred steak, and the redwood canopy! #steakandclaretnight

Tobacco, pencil shavings, warm red currant and cherry fruit, wet stones. Immediate, and good length. Great expression of place. Charming, if a bit volatile.
