July 7, 2022 - This has aged gracefully. Still fresh. Bordeaux nose and body. Shows old world restrain.

January 8, 2021 - Enjoyable last bottle that we bought at our tour of the winery. Drank with family prior to 2nd semester college sendoff.
Nose not as complex as the last bottle, still fairly complex flavors, but not as much Cab Franc showing as my last notes memorialized. All tannins were smoothed out, so probably won't get better with age.
Not the best year for Napa, so probably time to drink up if you still have any. -

August 8, 2020 - In a nice drinking window. Arielle's college send off gathering. Enough on the nose to be interesting, but not spectacular; more herbal from the cab franc coming through than I expected, but was a nice surprise.
Won't wait long to drink our remaining bottle. Wife loved it. -

July 20, 2020 - Dark purple in glass with no visible clearing on rim despite 9 year age. Fairly low in alc. at 14.2% it exudes blue and black fruits although more blue. It is a mellow wine with a soft finish that lets the fruit sing. Tannins are resolved and integrated so maybe not going to improve mich from here on out but drinking well at the moment
