September 17, 2023 - Decanted several hours. 1/2 teaspoon of sediment. Despite being 100% Cab from Napa there is a notable amount of red fruit on both the nose and palate, although there are some very nice layers of black fruits, dusty tannins, touch of dried herbs and sweet Oak.

November 3, 2022 - 3 hours slow ox. The alcohol still comes through too much on the palate for me and it took this otherwise wonderful wine down a point. Loads of overripe and lush and velvety (but for the heat) black fruits.
