November 6, 2023 - At last-Totally into drinking window now. Struck us as a Margaux, more feminine but also more Cab to it. Great qpr. Wish it was distributed in Colorado as we’d make this our house Cab.

June 30, 2023 - Exceptional Wa state Cab for the money. Needs lots of air for best results at this stage.
First night had a touch of sweetness with good nose & a medium to long finish
Second day (or maybe decant?) has a fragrant nose, definitely Varietally correct, less delicate structure with medium finish -

May 28, 2022 - Finally opened up this bottle. Very nice Cab. Not too bold, with lots of blackberry and cherry, also oak and earthy notes on the nose. I pick up some vanilla as well on the palate and a decently pepper finish. I thought this was enjoyable and if you can find it under $30 it's a nice buy.
Good stuff! -

June 7, 2021 - This was a little disappointing honestly. Seemed thin on body. Low tannins, fruit was muted. No detectable faults, just meh. I have had other vintages and they were ok, maybe just a miss this year.

February 13, 2021 - fruit forward, little low on acidity/tannins, subtle thin/bitter note mid palate, finished a little sweet, 2+ hours of air helped, but style is neutral for my palate, not a bad wine.
