- Sour cherry, orange essence, vanilla extract and a touch of spice on the nose with a touch of cream or fat and spice in the background. In the mouth, the wine shows incredible dry tannins in the midpalate, with medium acidity and a long spicy sour cherry finish.Super disjointed wine with a ridiculous amount of hot spicy oak, and void of any body or personality. Yipes! Another do over.

- Fat vanilla and stewed fruit nose on this one. With a touch of chocolate mint at the outer edges, making it somewhat intriguing, but not drawing me in. Drying fine tannins on this wine with an acidity that is nice and fresh, though absolutely no body. Maybe a bit tainted, though not really sure. This is not good wine.
