    July 12, 2023 - Decanted over cocktails. Stunningly aged cult Cab. The dense fruit has softened and sweetened with viscous, palate-saturating compote well integrated with earth and relaxed tannins. My only bottle but who knows how long this beauty will last.

    April 13, 2023 - Big, rich and dense but it possessed ultra elegance without being overwhelming. Palate was long and deep with chewy tannins. 94-95

    April 12, 2023 - In the perfect drinking window. Definitely showing its age at this point. Weightless mouthfeel, very fine tannins. Wonderful finish.

    April 8, 2023 - You definitely get what you came here for. The best word to describe this is concentrated and intense. Deep and inky, its hard to tell if this is red, blue, or black, but its night for sure. Blackberry jam, loam, incense and baking spices...Just a fruit basket of deep delight with lots of energy and no signs of slowing down. It seems as if these wines are put through a centrifugal extractor to eek out all you can from a grape. Really rich and opulent...So rich, its hard to finish one bottle between 2 people. Drink
