Scarlet red color, nose of cassis and French oak - even before the first, an intense, rich, ripe, intriguing wine captures the imagination. The palate follows through with seamless and complex harmony - full, rich, exciting and ever-ruminating. A momentary evolution in the glass with fine and abundant tannins balanced by fruit-driven character. Soft and slightly gritty. Ripe yet structured. Expansive and long in finish. Personally, i am excited that Mother Nature can produce a product like this wine. - Chuck Wagner, Owner and Winemaker
95 Points - Wine Spectator, October 2021. " This asserts itself through flattery right from the start, with a gush of warmed cassis, acai berry redutcion and plum preserves laced liberally with mocha-accented toast and carried by very plush structure. This is weighty and brimming with fruit, while the toast takes a lenghty encore on the finish. A hedonist's dream. Drink now through 2034."
