April 7, 2024 - My prior notes apply. I should add there is a touch of eucalyptus.

January 12, 2024 - Starting off a bit more unbalanced than the last bottle. Coming off as heat stressed.
After an hour it has settled down and chilled out. Now similar to the last bottle.
It was still decent on day 2. -

January 8, 2024 - A strong presentation of cassis, mocha, dried herbs, and a little loam on both nose and palate, with a finish that lingers moderately secco.
This is a well balanced cab-merlot blend with decent character and structure -and maybe a bit of terroir peaking through. It should handle a few more years of cellaring nicely. For $10/bottle this is an exceptional value.
Day 2
It has picked up a sharp, if slight, grassy acetone note on the nose, but the palate is still good if diminished. This may be better drunk in a few hours rather than a couple days. We shall see what the next bottle brings. 2 points removed.
