September 11, 2017 - Currant paste, mocha, pencil lead and crushed black rock. A medium finish, with a percolating acidity throughout. Evident depth; the grainy tannins are present, but the approachability is the focus. Drink 2018 - 2028.

September 9, 2017 - A nice first effort by Smith. Nothing at all unusual or noteworthy, kind of a me-too Cabernet, but enjoyable. We love their Pinots (especially Hellenthal) and wish them success with the Cabs.
