April 3, 2024 - This wine feels like it weighs a ton. The excessive wood drags it down and makes this feel very heavy. Unpleasant to drink. Not my thing

March 29, 2024 - In a great drinking window. Deep red color, with slight bricking. Nose a bit reserved, hints of fruit, wood, earth. With a bit of time, rich and well integrated cab franc flavor with ripe tannin. Great on its own, paired well with a burger steak.

February 3, 2024 - Dense, jammy, ripe and concentrated. It is hard to distinguish the Cab Franc. Nevertheless, well made and quality fruit. Better on day 2 so probably needs a bit of air.
