December 2, 2023 - Opened and decant for an hour or so. Dark purple with a solid nose of red and black fruits, cigar box and oak spices on the nose. Full bodied with great fruits and hints of mocha while being decently balanced. Probably a wine for food paring but it does have a degree of complexity that should be enjoyed IMO

March 19, 2023 - Delicious Cabernet blended with a splash of Merlot and Malbec. Plum, boysenberry, blackberry and olive mingle with coffee and licorice. A touch of fresh herbs adds a nice layer of complexity to this well structured acid+ wine.

September 20, 2022 - Took 60-90 min to open up but well worth it. An excellent Cabernet all the way around.

April 1, 2022 - Spectacular! Already open and expressive, yet balanced and structured for the long haul. Palette-saturating blackberries, vanilla and jammy fruits. Plum pudding. Minerally. Fine tannins coat the finish. Can't wait to see how this develops! At this stage this is my favorite vintage yet from this producer.

December 27, 2021 - This will improve with age, no doubt. Still excellent now with a couple hours decant. Enjoyed over several hours as it evolved. Big, bold dark fruits with integrated tannins already.
