  Walkaround tasting so just short notes: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc. The result is a classical wine with dark berries, juicy acidity and sticky tannin. Probably wise not to drink before 2028. Will drink lovely until well into the 2030’s. 90 - 91+

  March 21, 2023 - Black and red currants, coffee bean, licorice, and smoke create the nose. Medium-bodied, creamy, and fresh, with soft-textures, and chalky red fruits with a background note of chocolate on the mid-palate, and in the finish, this is going to be delicious in its youth, and age for over a decade. Drink from 2023-2038.

  Medium-bodied, savory, earthy and spicy, with a core of crunchy fresh red berries finishing with touches of cedar, tobacco leaf, pepppery spice and red currants. You can enjoy this classicly styled wine with just a few years of age. 89-91

  Deep appearance
  Spicy nose, some meat and perfumed red fruit – plenty ripe and good lift too.
  
  Plump, rounded attack, there is an elegance to the weight and a persistent perfume. Spicy and earthy, stony mineral intensity, and a toasty/herby finish. Feels among the lighter wines, but good complexity, intensity and depth.
