March 18, 2024 - Nothing formal. Showing no signs of its 13 year age. Did not decant but probably could have.

August 30, 2023 - Tasted after a 60 minute decant.
Dark ruby in colour with somewhat restrained aromas of earthy, slightly jammy black fruit with leather & mocha. On the palate, full bodied, juicy black fruit, cassis/blackberry, well integrated oak/cedar, eucalyptus/menthol, leather, medium acidity, high soft tannins with a long finish to smoky & dusty minerality.
This wine tastes quite fresh considering it’s 13 years old. And it is well balanced with respect to fruit, oak, tannins, alcohol & acidity at this stage in its life. Some life left, but good reason to drink up now. -

August 5, 2022 - dark but clear. fragrant nose of dark berries, cassis in particular, strong spicy aromas, detectable alcohol, cedar, cinnamon. palate is vibrant and lively. fruity with a slight herbal green bitterness but it finishes sweet. some welcome and nicely integrated tannin on the close. a fruit fwd but very enjoyable napa cab. at peak, should hold here for a few years.

December 24, 2021 - One of the most subtle cabs I’ve had. Smooth, balanced and very pleasant.
I would say it is at its peak.
