Opaque ruby. Powerful aromas of black and blue fruit preserves, vanilla, licorice and violet, along with a smoky mineral quality. Fleshy and broad on the palate, offering pliant blueberry, cherry liqueur and mocha flavors and building hints of oak spices and candied flowers. The vanilla and blue fruit notes reverberate on a smoky long finish framed by slowly building tannins. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, February 2021)

Pronounced aromas of ripe black fruits upon opening, followed by dark cocoa, grilled herbs, and purple florals. Hint if rusted iron as well. Rich palate yet so refined. Alcohol subsided a bit since the last bottle about 2 years ago. Irresistible but patience will be rewarded.

Delicious. Supple, smooth, chocolatey spicy earthy dark fruit with a hint of black licorice. Would have rated it higher if it had more bouquet in the glass. But this is really good.

Pretty similar to the 15’, except that there is a bit heat felt at the end. But boy is it delicious! Will try to age the remaining bottles but hard to resist.

A nice change of pace from the Napa reds we usually enjoy.

Young and exuberant. Deep opaque purple, and the tail literally stick to the glass. Muted but pleasant nose, leads to dark cherry and black currant with some burnt cedar wood on the palate. Rich mouthfeel but still a little tannic. Should integrate with time. Great bottle at a great price. Should age effortlessly for a decade or more.
