December 9, 2023 - Opened, needed some air, drank over 6 hr, soft tannins, still balanced fruit and acidity, improved with time, 91 on pnp, 92 at the end. ~5ish years to go, great qpr for a wine intended to be laid down.

November 29, 2023 - Drinking nicely now, distinctive cab nose, balanced fruit and acidity, mellowed tannin, average finish, in it's prime, not rush 4-5 more years?

October 23, 2020 - True to type, but didn't show the depth of flavor and typicity that this producer can achieve. Middle of the road, though solid.
