April 13, 2024 - About an hour in the glass before drinking. Deep dark purplish magenta color. Raspberry, rose, and grilled pineapple. Very dry palate. Firm tannins on the longish finish.
This is decent for the poor vintage. Nothing I’d stock up on. The ‘20 NVD is equally enjoyable for half the price, although I wouldn’t stock up on that either. -

March 4, 2024 - My favorite of the bunch. First ever 100% cab estate wine. Fruity but good acid, well balanced, a touch of oak. Better in a few years for sure.
