Had a year ago. Prior tasting notes apply. Blackberry with a stony, chalky finish. Silky tannins. But it's not holding up so I downgraded it since last tasting. Disappointing given it's twice the price of Worthy. Maybe the next vintage is better, but so far I'm not impressed. Stick with the Worthy. Much better quality at half the price.

Katie and I did not love this. Wish there had been more complexity. It was a bit flabby.

This is a relatively new wine - a Baby Axios and Big Brother to Worthy. Nose full of boxed spice. Continues onto the palate with fresh picked blackberries and follows with a nice stony, chalky finish. Silky tannins. Overall, a nice effort. Is it better and worth twice the price of Worthy? Not in the mind of this vino lover, but you be the judge.
