I am forever a devil's advocate but this is one of our greatest achievements - fruit, mid palate, earth, tannin, acid; it's all there and deliciously so.

Very nice. Seems fully mature at this point, but still quite lively. Nice balance of fruit with leather and earthy flavors.

Dec 31st, 2015Well made but the sweetness and heat was over the top. Had this with numerous other cult wines and it stood out like a Mack truck. Maybe try again with some air.
