Oh my! One fine wine. Tasted September 2013.
Great tannin structure reminds me of Bordeaux or even the Bella Terra wines from Pondview Winery in the Niagara Region. Finesse instead of jammy. Hints of smoky oak and vanilla-nail polish on the finish. Nice wine with some tension that drinks well now. Not a blockbuster at all, something tells me even California is changing their ways.
