Had this with a nice, rare, mesquite-charcoal grilled hangar steak and it was a perfect accompaniment. The nose is classic Walla Walla (but not funky enough for the Rocks, which this is not): smoky campfire embers, lots of dusty gravelly scents, a little hint of roasted, aged meat. So savory on the palate, coating the mouth with dusty flavors (some dark, oozy berries too). There’s plenty of soft tannin to ensure a few years aging. Lowish acids, typical for Walla Walla basaltic terroir. I have a soft spot for Walla Walla, admittedly. — 7 days ago

Solid, but not memorable. Some green vegetable notes the first day, but on second and third days it was more pristine and elegant. — 6 years ago

Förtrollande färg. Honung, saffran, torkade kryddor, nektarin och lite kex. Angränsar halvtorr men nog den ganska låga syran som lurar än. Oavsett, väldigt gott. — 8 years ago

I really love this wine, and bought several bottles after a SA wine tasting. Unfortunately I didn’t keep good notes, but I remember it being easy drinking and a good pairing with food or alone. — 7 years ago

An explosion of apricot flavor. Round and smooth, heavy weight, with sufficient but not overt acidity. A beautiful sweet wine. — a month ago

Interesting to observe how the style of this flagship cuvée has shifted over the years, dialing back the oak, picking earlier, focusing on purity and sense of place.
Dark & slightly brooding on the nose with plum & hint of black cure leaf, freshly turned earth. A tiny pinch of spices, the wood not evident at all. Fresh & pure.
On the palate this is so juicy, medium tannin with just a tiny bite, filled with fresh damson plums and a hint of black currant. Juicy acidity, and nice length with an earthy finish. 14% alc, as in prev vintages, but this time unnoticeable. Nice depth and purity here.
This is a lovely wine, with juicy fruit and a savoury edge. Brilliant food companion.
Delish!

Fading black fruit with an amazing array of exotic spices. A Christmas tree of sorts. Juicy acidity and soft tannins. Drinking beautifully and lasting for long minutes. — 8 years ago
