  Varietally typical hints of bell pepper and mint, but wrapped in a delicate structure. Usually that's a minus for me, but it was framed pretty well and really faded into the background after an hour to two of air. Went well w/ steak and on its own.

  IMW - Cab / Cab Franc Panel Tasting 2018 (Hyatt, San Francisco): 84% cab, the rest cab franc, merlot, petit verdot.
  Deep ruby color. Very ripe blackcurrant - speaks of the sun, has just a hint of raisination. A slight stewed-capsicum pyrazines. Well-integrated oak spice (nutmeg, banana bread crust, gingerbread). Rich on the palate, full-bodied with high alcohol (feels 15%), medium acid, medium plus tannins. Excellent mid-palate concentration and integration. Long finish. Excellent example of ripe Cab, but not as structured as I'd like.
  ~60% new French barrique.

  MW 2017 SIT DOWN CABERNET FRANC/CABERNET SAUVIGNON TASTING WITH MATT WEIS. Blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc. Nose of sweet fruit, dark fruit, hints of bell pepper, same on the palate, medium/big body, very tasty, mouth filling fruit, needs 2 years to peak, and a medium/long finish.
