May 10, 2020 - Nicely aged. A Cab Franc and Merlot blend. Definitely decant. Pleasant nose. Black dark fruit. A bit of a spicy finish.

June 28, 2018 - Disappointing. Thought I would like this more give the blend. Have tried several vintages so far and all were uninspiring.

May 19, 2016 - Arietta Dinner w/Fritz Hatton (NY Vintners (21 Warren Street)): Drank next to the '07 and the '13. This one was the most ready and open for business from the first pour I thought. 70% CF/30% Merlot. Very well structured, well balanced, lots of leaves and stems and all of that. One of my favorite '09s from Napa that I've tried.
