Monday, April 29, 2024 - This definitely grew on me over time, but never fully clicked with me. I understand that it's from a "cooler climate" area for CA Cab, but it ended up showing as an only-sometimes enjoyable mix of very green, slightly bitter bell pepper/coffee grounds (excessive pyrazine for my palate) alongside a pretty hefty, heavy weight, with warm plums and a bit of alcohol heat on the finish. Solid tannin structure and acidity though; gentle without being flabby. It certainly feels like "real" wine, serious stuff. It's just a little out-of-balance and a little tough to enjoy at this stage.
