  April 8, 2020 - Moving this back to 90 Points. This bottle just seemed to have a little too much spice at the end for me. Otherwise this was a nice example of CF.

  December 1, 2019 - Decanted for 2 hours. Aroma was quite pronounced. Taste had lots of dark fruit, plum, a little Earth and spice (chili pepper). Smooth and balanced with minimal acidity. Give this bottle to 91 Points. Good QPR.

  October 21, 2019 - This is huge right now with very firm tannins. Finish of black cherry lingers a bit. But it needs time or a half-day decant. It unfortunately lacks the nuances I so enjoy with Cab Franc except for the very end where I get some rose petals. Next in 2023 or later.

  October 20, 2019 - Very nice. Dropping it a point to 90, but this is based on a PnP. Once it decants and I get my Braised Short Rib Grilled Cheese sandwich to pair up with, I’m sure it will be better!

  October 2, 2019 - Similar to the Previous bottles. Nice taste, spice, mixed fruit, tannins were softer. Long finish. Delicious and this is still getting better and better. Glad I got 3 more today.
