A bit sharp and minty, with some green tannic astringency accompanying the riper fruit flavors of blackberries and cherries. It’s a good, honest wine whose texture is somewhat off.

Tart in acidity, with simple cherry flavors that taste baked into a pie. But the finish is fully dry. Tannic, too, with the result that the mouthfeel is hard as nails.

Here’s a dry, tannic wine, elegantly structured, with deep flavors of blackberries, currants, herbs and cedar. It’s a bit hard and unyielding now, but softens in the glass. Very nice with steak. Now–2011.

Good, deeply extracted flavors in this darkly soft wine, with blackberries, plums and spicy, chocolaty chai tea. It’s nicely dry. The tannins are a little off, with some ragged, green edges that won’t age away, so drink now.

A good wine, dry and firm in tannins, although it’s a bit soft and lacking in structure. The flavors are just fine, of briary blackberry jam, sprinkled with crushed black pepper. Drink now.
