November 23, 2022 - I am a fan of aged Ethos but did not appreciate this vintage for the merlot. Overripe, stemmy cooked fruit, low acid. Meh.

July 24, 2017 - One of the better CSM reds I've had in a while. Great balance, medium tannins, and juicy acidity. Blue fruits all over the place, especially on the nose. Good stuff that has another 5-7 years left at least.
