July 3, 2022 - Similar to previous notes. This has a fruit-forward style, with a bit of power, but feels pretty one-dimensional, and even inexpensive. Not something I'd seek out.

October 25, 2020 - Similar to previous notes; just a bit of a too obvious fruit style for me, again reminding me of the likes of modern Caymus. This held up well on the 2nd day, and it has some aspects I pick up from other Washington cabs which can be inviting and welcome - a kind of saline saltiness with very fine grained tannins. Some may find this very appealing but I prefer more structure and some dryness.

May 8, 2020 - Sweet and spicy, this bottle had more going on than the previous one. Cassis syrup and cinnamon-allspice-ginger with a hint of vanilla. A touch flabby but tasty.
