October 12, 2021 - Decanted over cocktails. Gorgeous, feminine expression of Rutherford Cabernet with wonderful balance of acid and perfumed red and black fruit, silky mouthfeel along with textured grainy tannins, and long finish. Showing great right now.

June 15, 2021 - Fabulous fruit bouquet with just the right amount of oak, with long lingering finish. Ready to drink upon opening, nicer after an hour in the glass. Drank with steak and truffles. Superb pairing.

April 17, 2020 - Drank with Sarah Francis in virtual zoom tasting. Tasted much older as wine was very integrated and balanced. Notes of dark berries. Fascinating story on how she became a winemaker. If you get a chance, this is a must try bottle leaving you looking for more

December 27, 2018 - Tasting with Sarah Francis (Coombsville, CA): Tasted at the winery alongside 2015 "Leo." Black cherry, currant and cassis from start-to-finish with impressive density and brightness. Very long finish. Slightly brooding for Napa Cab, particularly in contrast to the extroverted Leo. Certainly mid-90s point potential.
