  November 8, 2021 - This wine may be going through a quite period where it withdraws within itself before its next stage of development. While still a very nice wine, the midpalate was hiding. I'll wait awhile to open the rest.

  June 7, 2020 - Decanted and poured. Amazing structure. Nose was full of the essences of the vineyard and winery. Earth, fruit and barrel combined to send a beautifully developed aroma from the glass. The wine evolved in the glass, staring out super-muscular and with a certain richness. Over time the tannins gave in to the wonderful evolution of the Washington fruit and terroir. I can only imagine how much better this wine will become. Certainly the best is yet to come. Potentially 96+.

  June 16, 2019 - Decanted just under an hour. Full-bodied, rich, decadent with a long finish. A lot of tannin initially, but it gradually opened up. Lots of dried fruit, earth, minerals. Paired very well with a well-marbled steak.
