Nose
Spectacular, and one of the highlights of this tasting, bursting from the glass with aromas of dark chocolate, smoked duck, blackberries, licorice, cassis, burning embers, tapenade and cracked black pepper. - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
Palate
On the palate, it's full-bodied, layered, and mouthwateringly savory, with cool fruit tones, a lovely underlying line of acidity, and plenty of youthful energy, concluding with a refined but gently tannic finish... this compelling wine that screams Syrah and Walla Walla—but also more than nods to the Northern Rhône. - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
