April 14, 2024 - A really strong showing this weekend. Our bottle was a blend of the 2016 and 2017 vintage and was decanted for 2 hours prior to dinner. This was showing pronounced flavor intensity with a restrained ripeness of fruit more akin to a ripe left bank Bordeaux rather than Napa. Very well integrated use of new french oak which added to the flavor complexity of the wine. A medley of dark black fruit, toasted cedar, and savory spices.

April 4, 2024 - Tasty with Marin French Breakfast Brie. It brought out a salted caramel flavor to the Brie and enhanced the wine. I usually enjoy this cheese with an oaked Chardonnay but found this equally good with this. Consistently good wine each time I try this.

February 16, 2024 - Anticipated more. Has all the qualities on the nose, however is underwheling for the QPR. It did develop over a couple hours so I’m hoping a couple more years will do wonders. .
