November 18, 2023 - The best bottle of six I've drunk since 2008. The slightly jammy notes I've found before is now not present anymore.This is a classic Cabernet, with still a lot of black fruit aromas and flavours left. Smooth tannins, well intergrated oak, moderate tertiary aromas/flavours. Long finish. Outstanding Napa Cabernet. Drinking perfect now. Can be kept in cellar for another 5-7 years.

August 5, 2021 - Lambert's bottle. Not decanted or otherwise prepped; poured at the fire pit and it was the 5th bottle of the night. As such my observation skills were somewhat impaired, but the juicy ripe-vintage fruit was immediately apparent. Could be at peak but could have some upside surprises to come for people like me who enjoy tertiary stage wines.

March 20, 2021 - Not blind. And 93+.
I am normally not a fan of 1.5. However, this has aged beautifully and makes me retract that statement.
Beautifully integrated and the harsh acid finish is gone.
