  June 15, 2019 - A nice CF, with a good dose of herbs and good balance, but not quite the presence of Napa's francs.

  May 10, 2019 - Rich and earthy. Showing some dark chocolate and cassis. No peppercorn or leafiness anywhere. Would have guessed a Cab S if blind. Definitely has that more darker, brooding mountain character. There is little flesh int eh color of this wine. Not quite see through of course, but light comes through easily but this still feels quite robust. Medium tannin. Interesting wine. This might improve a bit over the short term but I didn't get the sense aging will really improve this a whole lot. Good.
