Not quite as good as my last bottle. Maybe it seemed that way because we had it at the tail end of dinner after finishing a really great bottle of Austin Hope cab, so it was up against tough competition in a direct comparison. Still good though.

Wine has matured nicely since my last note of 12/31/20. Much less tightly wound. Tannins have softened to reveal fruit flavors. A nice bottle of cab that went well with grilled steaks.

Surtout sur les poivrons verts, un turn off pour moi! Il y a aussi du boisé et des tannins un peu asséchants avec une finale longue mais sur la chauffe. Correct.

This is showing beautifully now - very laid-back, earthy tones, well-balanced. The extra bit of bottle age has really let this develop.

A bit stiff and brooding but solid for the price.
