“Bright pink. Chamomile, minerals, and herbs. A relatively soft, inviting wine, with aromas and flavors of plum, strawberry and almond notes. Fresh, round and well-balanced on the finish. As always, this estate is remarkably adept at producing easy to drink wines that have above average depth and concentration for their price and wine category. Well done.” -Ian D’Agata, Vinous, Jun. 1, 2018

“Enticingly fragrant, this opens with delicate scents of forest berry, underbrush, new leather and crushed purple flowers. Juicy and enveloping, the smooth, full-bodied palate presents ripe Morello cherry, raspberry preserve, licorice and chewing tobacco framed in taut fine-grained tannins. Drink 2023–2033.” Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018

“Enticing scents of iris, violet, perfumed berry and cake spice mingle with whiffs of balsamic and menthol. Full in body, but boasting a weightless elegance, the palate delivers juicy wild cherry, raspberry preserve, cinnamon and licorice. Taut, polished tannins provide structure and finesse while fresh acidity keeps it balanced. Drink 2022–2032.” Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018

“Delicately scented, this offers underbrush, pressed violet and wild berry aromas. It’s medium-bodied and loaded with elegance, delivering crushed raspberry, Morello cherry, licorice and a hint of pipe tobacco set against taut, refined tannins. Bright acidity provides balance. It’s a bit austere at this stage but will develop beautifully. Drink 2023–2043.” Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018

“Heady scents of chopped herbs, woodland berry, forest floor, new leather, dark spice and violet are just some of the aromas you’ll find on this fragrant wine. It’s savory and loaded with finesse, delivering juicy Marasca cherry, raspberry compote, licorice, orange zest and pipe tobacco alongside firm yet polished tannins and fresh acidity. A tangy mineral note graces the lingering finish. It’s still young and needs plenty of time to fully unwind and develop. Drink 2027–2042.” Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 1, 2018

“A streak of pure cherry makes up the core of this tightly built red. Currant and floral accents keep this pure, yet light earth, tar and mineral elements keep this grounded. Shows fine balance and length. Best from 2021 through 2033. 250 cases made.” –BS, Wine Spectator, Apr. 30, 2018

“A meaty, dense and tannic version, with ample cherry, leather, iron and tobacco notes at the core. A beam of lively acidity drives the finish, which leans to the underbrush side. Best from 2019 through 2030. 3,300 cases made.” –BS, Wine Spectator, Apr. 30, 2018

“Ripe, yet refined in profile and texture, this red displays cherry, strawberry, rose and mineral flavors. Firms up on the finish, showing overall balance and fine length. Best from 2019 through 2032. 250 cases made” –BS, Wine Spectator, Apr. 30, 2018

“A chewy version, with concentrated flavors of blackberry, plum and earth, backed by fresh acidity, this turns leaner and more tightly wound as it plays out on the sage- and rosemary-accented finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2019 through 2027. 1,600 cases made.” –BS, Wine Spectator, Apr. 30, 2018

“A well-balanced, medium-bodied red, with refined tannins married to flavors of crushed black cherry, Earl Grey tea, smoky mineral and dried fig. Lightly juicy on the lingering, spiced finish. Drink now through 2023. 5,000 cases made.” –AN, Wine Spectator, Apr. 2018
