Artwork shows a public barrel tasting. Ruby with tangy fruit & floral spice aromas. Dark fruit and cranberry flavors on the palate with spices, tobacco and earthy notes. Lingering finish tight tannins that need some time, ending with rustic earthy tones. Nice!

The 15 it is much more approachable now. 14 again will take some time.

So elegant and effortless on the palate. Wild, underripe raspberry, dirt, funk, acidity hums throughout but never sharp or angular. Extraordinarily impressive.

Really great. Not too complex. Needed some open air time.

Hard to keep all the K Wright labels straight...but even for a 2014 pinot, this needed air and was a different wine within an hour. Very good once it opened.
