With a bright yellow and hay colored hue, there is freshness, length, minerality and blast of yellow citrus, white peach and ripe, sweet honeydew melon. Aged entirely in terra cotta for 10 months, the wine leaves you with just squeezed citrus, white peach and freshness.

Boysenberry, hints of dark cocoa, earth and just a bit of truffle kick things off. But the petal hits the metal in this medium/full bodied, forward, structured wine with the elegant combination of present, but polished tannins and pure, fresh fruits on the palate and in the finish. You can drink this early for pleasure or age it a few years.

Musty earth and espresso, with a pure, black cherry core of fruit is at the hear of this wine. Mountain fruit, flowers and a gentle softness to the tannins makes an interesting combination. From there, you also find ripe, smoke, black and blue fruits, concentration of flavor, energy and elegant tannins. In 2015, here, you find more balance than density, making this that lets this be fun to taste early in the life.

Silky, lush, sweet and spicy, loads of ripe kirsch is here in abundance in this forward styled wine. This delicious blend of almost exclusively Grenache with a just dab of Petite Sirah is clearly ready to go.

Polished, lush, spicy, juicy and fresh, the wine is all about the dark chocolate covered black cherries, hints of blueberry, licorice, vanilla and smoke. Round, fleshy and fun to drink, even in its youth, pop a cork now, if you prefer exuberant flavors, or age it for bit.

Dark in color, the wine has salty tannins, crushed rocks, blackberry, plum and bitter chocolate galore. Concentrated and fresh, give this a few years to come around.

This is a stunner. Inky in color, dense, fat and rich, with layers of sweet, black fruits, ripe tannins, licorice and just a hint of coffee and chocolate to round things out. This is so good now and my instincts tell me, this will get even better in a few years. From 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, this must be from a fabulous source, as this consistently such a good wine.

Produced from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is rich, powerful, opulent and loaded with sweet juicy, ripe berries, a hint of jam, espresso and bitter chocolate. Round, lush and polished in texture, this is already open for business.

Inky, dark in color, the wine is big, rich, mouth coating, and packed with layers of dense, ripe, glycerin infused berries. Intensity and density, balance and acidity are at play here. There is a fabulous sense of purity to the fruit in this vintage. I could not stop drinking this beauty. Hey, if George Lazenby was this good, Roger Moore would never have become Bond!

Wow, I swallowed that bad boy. It was just too damn tasty! And that says a lot as this was part of a fairly big tasting I was going through. The Arsenal showed a great mouth feel, with its layers of sweet, lush, juicy, ripe, dark red and black fruits, the wine coated your palate with silky tannins and lush, sweet, berries.

Smoke, tobacco, charcoal, tar, balsamic and dark fruits are out in front. Lush, tannic and long, but lacking the concentration found in my favorite wines from Aaron Pott in 2012, give this a little time to come around and allow the tannins fade.

With multiple layers of plush, ripe, fresh, jammy black raspberries, the wine offers a serious intensity of flavors and ripe tannins. But it needs a few years for the tannins to smooth out the Rutherford dust finish before it begins to show its best.

The perfume opens with a blast of chocolate covered blackberries, black cherry, earth and spice. The wine is tannic and demands a few years of bottle age before the full level of pure, fresh, ripe cassis, berries, licorice and chocolate delivers its full punch.
