Wine Reviews

This red has settled in nicely, offering dark fig and chocolate notes mixed in with hints of baking spices, coffee can bread and licorice root. Delicious. Drink now through 2032.

Offers alder, green fig, date and rye notes, while singed peanut, salted caramel and hazelnut husk accents emerge through the burnished and lengthy finish. A handsome style.

Tightly focused in feel, with racy graphite notes supporting a core of dark currant, blackberry and plum reduction … while also showing hints of alder smoke, licorice root and Turkish coffee.

Offers a plump, friendly feel, with cherries jubilee, singed cinnamon, red and black tea, and candied pecan notes all swirling through together. There’s a juicy underlay on the finish.

A very deep nose of crushed sweet blackberries, iodine, cocoa and mussel shells with a touch of lavender and violets. Graphite and dark minerals too. Full-bodied, concentrated and tightly wound, with a solid grip from fine, dusty tannins. Long, focused finish. Integrated sweetness, flavor and alcohol. Drinkable now with dark chocolate on the plate, but better after 2032. Will age well in the next few decades. Drink or hold.
