    January 19, 2024 - Opened wonderfully after a 4 hour decant. Berries, pencil, soil, green pepper notes. Nice finish.

    August 21, 2022 - Disappointing, pared with Alpha Omega, Saturday night dinner.
    Alpha had the dust, classic top shelf cab.
    Fait Main, monotone, boring fruit, embarrassing choice for a night with friends.

    December 22, 2021 - Powerful and concentrated with dark fruits and that bold cab spice you get from Beckstoffer. It was excellent for those who enjoy this style of winemaking

    July 10, 2021 - This is now ready to drink! Since other 2018s are finally coming around, I decided to re-visit Mr. Touquette's annual masterpiece. Dark black and red in the glass with a little bit of purple. Blackberry and blueberry, lot's of earth, mineral and graphite from mid-palate through the finish. Nice and full and this is a typical Benoit wine -- it's not over the top, it's full-flavored, it's dialed back slightly, it's a great representation from The Las Piedras Vineyard, and, it's awesome.

    97-98 points for now with upside.
