December 6, 2022 - Good but not great. Red cherries and light floral aromas with some red raspberries, blueberries and light oak. Some spice. Medium bodied with silky tannins. Not that much on the finish.

September 10, 2021 - Still on the young side. Tannins are dominate with raspberry and and creme de cassis. More Medoc than Napa at this point.

June 17, 2020 - This rich and extracted Cab Franc / Petit Verdot blend needs a few hours to open up, but it's quite tasty - and unique - once it does. Inky red in color; full in body; aromas of blueberry, licorice, menthol, and peppercorn. Flavors of blackcurrant, sour cherry, anise, and graphite, with a silky finish that needs air to shed its inherent sweetness (a persistent issue, to me, with Jeff Ames' wines). Blend of 44% Cabernet Franc, 44% Petit Verdot, and 12% Cabernet Sauvignon. 14.6% alcohol. 93-94 for now, with upside in 2022 or later. Still going strong on second day.

April 23, 2020 - Medium red color. Different blend type, but needed to be decanted due to sediment. Wine opened up nicely over that 30 minutes. Medium to deep red fruits, light floral hints and even a bit of graphite. Good solid bottle of wine
