Big fan of this Right Banker. Showed great character and structure with abundant clay like mineral and Terrior driven character, good black plum and currant all throughout. Wish I had another!

Jul 5th, 2015Clear, deep ruby color, pronounced tears, clean nose, medium/pronounced fruit. Developing. Dry, medium acidity, medium/high tannin, medium alcohol. Hints of prune and blackberry with tomato and toast. Lovely now but should improve with age.
