  September 16, 2023 - Opened - let sit for a little bit and then poured. Dark fruit on the nose leading to palate of blackberry, boysenberry and plum. The finish was nice. It didn't really have a chance to shine as we drank along side a Sojourn CS and that was everyone's preferred wine.

  March 12, 2022 - After reading some of the reviews I wanted to leave the case of this I just bought at the curb for some college kids to grab and make party juice.
  
  After trying it, I think it’s good for 40/bottle. I drank after having a glass of Justin Isosceles and I liked this wine better by far. Not a lot to write home about, but most $40 wines aren’t. I’d out this against a lot of wines in the 40-70 range.

  January 19, 2022 - Fine Wines SG - 2018 Cabernet BYOB (Praelum Wine Bistro): Deep ruby, with thick legs. Tannins providing good structure while generally weighted and fleshy, with medium ripe blackberry and plum flavours and also a sense of violets and mint, then cinnamon. Pretty well balanced

• Vino Loco Does not like this wine: 87 points

  January 8, 2022 - After Canoehead’s review had to try it for myself. Was it possible for something that had been consistently good in earlier vintages to be so bad? Quick answer, yes…
  
  Notes of pine needles and maple syrup. It has the complexity and finish of something like Josh.
  
  I had a 2016 a few months ago and it was fantastic. The 2015 was also solid. The 2018 is a complete miss. If I could return my last three bottles I would - cellaring is not going to save this.
