Wine Reviews

This red exudes ripe cherry, raspberry, rose and mineral flavors fused to chalky tannins. Tightly wound on the finish today, yet there’s plenty of fruit locked inside, leaving a lasting impression on the finish. The length shows its potential.

Buried flavors of cherry and strawberry are augmented by underbrush, earth and oak spice notes in this muscular red. Nevertheless, this is ripe and almost racy courtesy of the vivid acidity. The balance tips toward thick tannins on the finish now, so give this time to integrate.

Cherry, raspberry, currant and spice flavors are embedded in the supple texture and dense structure of this red. Compact, long and balanced, needing time to relax and open up. Patience is required.

Tightly wound and underlined by dense tannins, this red requires patience before it’s possible to fully appreciate its core of cherry, blackberry, blueberry and spice flavors. Black pepper and stone elements peek through on the aftertaste, which is persistent and firm. Shows restrained power.

Lifted and high-toned, the nose offers wild strawberry, red cherry, fresh earth, and delicate floral overtones. The palate is pretty and expressive, though best for near-term drinking, showing rhubarb, wild thyme, white pepper, and fresh mushroom alongside bright strawberry fruit. Great acidity and body lend energy, though its charm lies in immediacy rather than longevity. Approachable and highly enjoyable now.
