  October 22, 2023 - USA 2013 tasting by Sander (By SS @ De Ertepeller in Papendrecht): Beautiful dark berries in the bouquet. On the palate elegant and juicy with good fresh acidity and slightly sticky tannin. Good length. Elegant wine.

  August 29, 2023 - Too juicy. Too dense. American Cab that saw too much sun. OK to drink but nothing to recommend.

  August 27, 2023 - Magnum. In a good drinking window now (I find that Martini Napa Cab is best around 7-10 years). Smooth tannins, well integrated. Coffee and cherry notes.

  January 21, 2023 - At opening, power, oak, complexity and tannic.
  Decanting for three hours before dinner. To be cont.
  
  After 3 hour and beyond a bold, bold CS appeared. Dry and fruity which gives a massive appearance. Perfect to accompany game.
  
  +3 yrs of potential development and probably 5-6 yrs left to drink?

  January 16, 2023 - On the night I opened, I was thinking maybe it had run out of gas; it was flat and static with muted fruit. I returned to the bottle two nights later and there was significant improvement. The black fruit profile shone through, and there was impressive depth and structure. Plenty of time left here, I will likely wait a year before popping another. Really enjoyed it.
