October 19, 2023 - This was fantastic. Perfect condition and cork, classic nose of cassis, mocha, spice, and a freshness akin to watermelon rind or eucalyptus. Perfectly balanced at this point. We prefer wines with some fruit, and this hit the perfect balance between secondary and tertiary characters.

October 21, 2022 - Not as layered and complex as the Gravelly Meadow but still beautifully rendered in almost a Burgundian way. Quite fresh with crisp acids and delicious red fruit flavors that lead to a refined, laser-like finish. A gorgeous, elegant Cab.

June 7, 2018 - Beautiful bottle just starting to enter its drinking window. Decanted for 3 hours then enjoyed over the next couple. Really started opening up with the last few sips. Can’t wait to track this over time.
