Very green tasting. Maybe the fruit couldn't ripen. Not very enjoyable, especially when the 2014 is next to the tasty 2016.

Need time. Dense purple, mid+ intensity of aroma, raspberry and blueberry, fresh blood, touch of vanilla, licorice and forest. Dry, mid acidity, mid- astringency, finish incl. slight bitterness. contemporary Merlot but need much time. 90% cab, 10% CF, 13.5%alc

Rich fruit/black cherry, nicely balanced, acid/slight bitterness on the finish — can spot the merlot but not too tannic. Really like this one.

Very nice. Perfect for lounging around watching Star Wars. Lots of red fruit.
