"This is 100% whole cluster pressed, aged on skins for 43 days before being aged in half new and half neutral puncheons. Focused aromas of blackberry, black raspberry, clove pod, licorice, orange peel, smoked meat and herb lead to ripe, rich, lip-smacking fruit flavors that trail slightly on the finish. Its best days are in front of it. Sean P. Sullivan"

"Consistently one of the winery's top bottlings, aromas of blackberry, black plum, dried herb, anise and spice are followed by supremely rich, tightly wound black fruit and crème de cassis flavors that show a firm grainy handshake of tannins and a warm crazy-long finish. It's all about intensity of expression but what intensity it brings."

"Offene, komplexe Frucht: Kirsche und balsamische Noten, rote Johannisbeere, wuchtiger Gaumen mit spät aufkommender Säure, deutlicher Viskosität im Hintergrund, extrem feines Tannin, beeindruckende Cremigkeit, aber der Alkohol drückt etwas durch"

"This wine is all about power and hedonism. Brooding dark fruit aromas meld with black licorice and lead to a seamless full-bodied blackberry and black-cherry flavors. It demands another sip."

"The kirsch, cranberry, dried herb, pomegranate and barrel spice aromas are laser focused, with smoked meat notes providing accents. The black fruit flavors are über concentrated and dense. It's wound tightly at first but when it opens up, it delivers."
