This wine at this stage of its evolution is coming across as a bit pruny and extremely ripe without being hot. Did not show well when drank next to a 2016 Sineann Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon which was much better balanced and more true to the varietal. This may be a case of where this wine is at today. My notes were agreed with by another taster about the dried fruit character.

Still a good wine. Had with a BBQ dinner and then with a sugar free macadamia torte. In good drinking window. Sorry it was the last bottle. The 2019 is not as good

Mary didn’t like. I thought it was tart, and only OK

Dark, smooth. Ready to drink. Not as complex as I remembered

Smooth. Wine in a nice window. A bit closed in. Hoping it will be better on night 2
