Ripe mountain fruit with a kiss of oak that is still quite tight and structured, very well-balanced, long, lingering finish, best yet of the 3 bottles we’ve opened, I should have let this slumber another 35 years at least!!

Feb 3rd, 2026Medium-dark purple, this has that Sonoma Mountain character with dusty, mineral, densely-structured red and dark fruits, ripe tannins, medium-long finish, drinks well now but should improve for 5-7 years, at least.
