October 7, 2020 - I’m really curious to see where this will go - bruit blueberry and currant, minerally, slightly floral. Nice to see a spry, balanced young California wine. Maybe I am really underrating this at around 90 points.

October 1, 2020 - Nose: Blackberry, black cherry, rose, violet, leather and cocoa notes. Good melange of flavors, but slightly muted now. Palalte: Low abv is clear and yet the wine is not at all green. Dark cherry, blueberry, bell pepper and graphite notes.
Needs some time to come together, but reminded me a bit of Brane Cantenac style Margaux2 people found this helpful Comment -

September 22, 2020 - A very silky settle wine that is low in alcohol. I look at this wine, and you can drink year round, seven on a hot summer day. Very nice.

September 20, 2020 - Family movie night. Decided what the heck; let's try something young but nice. Decanted 2+ hours then shared with the family. A little tight yet elegant fruit (currant, rose petal, dark cherry) anise, and slight floral aspects. Tannins are evident but not intrusive. 13.1% ABV this has a long illustrious future. Should hold for many years.
