February 2, 2019 - Garnet 8n color, clear, bright; cherry, raspberry, tobacco, and graphite on the nose with a palate of tart cherry and cranberry; medium(+) body, medium(+) acidity, medium tannins; nice nose and great acidity that offsets fruit and adds body through the mid palate; long, tart finish. Nice smooth and balanced Cab

October 15, 2018 - 10/2018 Smooth and complex cab with lots of structure. The layers unfolded as I savored every sip.

September 13, 2018 - Really nice and excellent QPR. Opened first of 3 bottles. Love that it is not a fruit/jam bomb. Really nice acidity to offset fruit. Muted tannins suggests not lying down too long.
Lots of fruit: blackberry, black cherry, currant. Nose is all fruit and palate brings in some balance. Cedar maybe, vanilla, cocoa, black pepper. Late but even some cranberry?
Nice finish, acidity shines through. Shifts towards cranberry. Excellent wine. Really enjoyed. -

September 4, 2018 - 3.6 on Vivino. Kind of light color, smooth but not fruity. Finish a bit gritty. Might try her new vintage cab but not blown away based on some of the reviews on Naked Wines.
