November 26, 2023 - I would have guessed Good quality modern style Loire. Lean and begging for food, not a free standing New World style at all. Good QPR.

April 10, 2020 - Mediocre at best. Didn’t think this was a good example of the CF Varietal.

August 4, 2019 - Initial impression is varietally correct cherries with hints of smoke. No real suggestion of bell pepper except the occasional faint hint (I like the bell pepper thing). Palate is juicy and fruity, as expected for a wine this young. The finish is energetic and mineraly, and there's a nice savoury note going on.
Similar on night 2. Decent buy at retail. Great at $20-22. -

April 1, 2019 - Crunchy, tart red fruit, earth, classic bell pepper. Definitely leans more Loire Valley than Bordeaux
