  Thought this was unexpectedly stunning. Very Californian overall but suffused with fascinating loamy minerality, that makes for a very nuanced glass. Entrancing nose of wild brambly strawberry mixed with wet stones, subtle cracked pepper, French vanilla, cedar. Palate is plush and well constructed, though more on the medium bodied side. Very nice.

  Wow, I thought this wine would be good- based on other vintners expressions of this vineyard but, once again wow! Voluptuous and inviting at this early stage. Richly flavored with mature tasting fruit. Deep and enticing this wine has nice body and good balance . I can only surmise where this highly attractive wine will finish its journey. (2022-2030)
