February 19, 2023 - Part of a large tasting. 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petite Verdot. Red and black fruit, bell pepper, spice and vanilla aromas. Red and black fruit, herbs, spice, tobacco flavors. A little low on acid. Medium tannins in the finish

September 3, 2022 - Huge fruit matched by big tannins. Wait 2 years for the next one.

July 8, 2022 - This seems at its peak for me: silky, mellow, with fine grained tannins. Flavors of dark cherry, vanilla fudge, tobacco. Finishes with a layered mix of cherry, sweet raspberry, and cream soda. Continued to open in the glass.
