March 16, 2024 - Decanted for sediment. Consistent with previous bottle. Delicious, balanced cabernet.

November 25, 2023 - I appreciate Matthiasson's, what I consider, old world approach to wines in the midst of big Napa reds. This has muted fruit of berry and plum supported by earthy elements, leather, tobacco...very right bank style Bordeaux. very nice. What keeps me from scoring higher is the price compared to what you can find from France (Bordeaux) and, in my opinion, is reflective of what it costs to produce wine in Napa vs France

September 14, 2022 - Aromas of dark cherry, tobacco, and chocolate. Deep fruit on the palate with fine extract and balance, firm acids, tannins medium but present, lovely aromatic finish. Delicious with sausages and caramelized onions. I love this wine.

August 27, 2022 - Popped and poured. Blackberry and black cherry on the nose along with some dark purple florals and a bit of vanilla and toasty oak notes. Similar flavors on the palate with medium+ acidity and tannins. Long finish. Lots of structure in this wine and while showing well now, I think this will be better with a few more years of age.

May 13, 2022 - Still incredibly young. Hold this if you have it. Cassis, raspberry, chocolate, mint/herbs, slight earthy tone. It’s all there with tannin and acid in balance. It was delicious with a strip streak. And it’s the earthquake vintage.
