July 31, 2022 - Dark, muted rust color. Ripe, sweet fruits exploding on the nose with oiled aged leather and dried fruits. Boysenberry and fig intermixed with present alcohol levels.

April 1, 2022 - Wine was enjoyable and almost caramelly for the first 30 minutes then quickly moved downhill. One of our blind tasters described it as madeira and I tend to agree. Not sure where this is going but it's going there quickly IMO. I thought it was a solid aged Napa cab at first and would have scored it around a 93-94. After a little air it settled in a 91. HMC

March 31, 2022 - Brought to tonight's tasting by James and best in the early going. Beautiful, aged Napa cab nose, regal cedar notes and slightly perfumed red fruit as well. However, as the night wears on over 3-4 hours, there is some devolving of this wine into a Madeira type nose and palate. Caramel, notes rise. It's good but not as good as in the early going. Pnp and drink these in the first hour if you want their best, IMO......maybe in the 95-96 range early, 92 late so a 94 on average overall.
