solomania9's Review:

Powdery strawberry nose with a little fungal funk. Light and delicate in the mouth with a tannic woodsy vibe. Very well balanced.

solomania9's Review:

Bright cherries on the nose with a body of well-balanced ripe red fruit. Tastes like a cab but with less sweetness. For me it's a little too well blended and nothing in particular stands out for me.

solomania9's Review:

Sweet uber ripe strawberries and black cherries on the nose. Packs a huge candied dry dusty body with lots of complexity and a long meandering finish. I'm kind of amazed I picked this up for $20.00 at a local wine shop! Might have to pick up a few more...

solomania9's Review:

Got a whiff of cotton candy on the nose. Lots of ripe well balanced fruit dominated by black cherries and a syrupy finish.

solomania9's Review:

Complex nose with some prickly white wool. Very tannic and lean in the mouth with a soft lingering finish.

solomania9's Review:

Spicy nutty nose. A soft flavor of musty yellow caramel and a good deal of lactic acid. Interesting for a glass but not two.

solomania9's Review:

Grainy mineral nose with a lot of tart acidity in the mouth. Enjoyable.

solomania9's Review:

Lean and yellow - not unlike a Rioja, but with more of that subtle Bordeaux wet wool. Currants and pepper with a nice surprisingly long thundery finish.

solomania9's Review:

Light and complex with a mealy yellow fungal note. Extremely delicate and complex - really enjoyable.

solomania9's Review:

Huge spicy red fruit on the nose. Big tight core of smoldering oak on the palate. Cali cab all the way.
