October 23, 2021 - Cedar and spice on the nose. Soft, elegant, and expansive on the palate. Chocolate and dark fruit. Integrated, soft tannins on the medium length finish. Acid is well integrated, if a little light, but I think this is in a great place right now.

March 8, 2014 - 89-90 points. Nice, though not extraordinary in any way. May evolve a bit more in bottle.
