August 15, 2021 - Had my last bottle 4 years ago and this has aged well. Improved with about an hour or two of air as its rough edges smoothed out and grew more complex. Fruit has darkened over the past 4 years. Still great structure underpins the fruit. Lots going on flavor-wise. Great weightless mouthfeel. This will live on for many years but alas I have no more!

July 3, 2017 - Awesome bottle of mountain fruit and structure. Still young and needs hours to open up. Eucalyptus, cassis and bell pepper on the nose. Lots of energy and freshness in the long finish. Red fruited with some cocoa notes. The star is the pure fruit and tension.

May 5, 2016 - A really excellent cab. Still tannic, even on day two, many years of enjoyment left in it. Beautiful deep purple color, bold fruit that is integrated nicely. Highly recommended.
