  May 21, 2023 - My last bottle of Luna Cab, no more since the winery was purchased. Solid Cab, but not remarkable.

  January 13, 2023 - Inky, dark fruit, anise, tar and drying tannins represent- POP. Dark fruit jam but not sweet, and black licorice pops in and the color is black purple btw. I'm at the end of a cold- so no high or low notes on nose, just taste notes. BIG and will revise tomorrow. That being said, more jammy than my jam, but I like it.
  Still no nose, because of the cold. Inky, dark fruit, tar, unsweetened jam and dry.
  Really good not disappointed, not 100 my style. BUT nothing I don't like about it, Score jumps for me if it contained an acidity and a tannic bite. Well worth a 90 for sure regardless.

  November 25, 2022 - This Luna is a real bargain but after the 2007 Montelena last night any subtle weaknesses were more easily exposed. Smooth black fruited with telltale Oakville anise and tar.
  
  Firm and balanced with just a little heat on the nose. My second bottle either showing brash and needing some time, a bit of bottle variation, or just not up to last night's bottle.
  
  Still delicious.

  January 23, 2022 - Quite good. Tasted alongside a 2013 Salvestrin, which was slightly better
