April 15, 2024 - Nice and consecrated with good fruit flavors. Nice complexity. More open than the 2020 Cabernet blend. Really drinking well now

January 13, 2024 - Agreed with my last note as well as Adam's. It's closed down a bit, but opens up with a few hours. It is throwing off a surprising amount of sediment, which worries me just a bit. A more fun wine when it was young, this should probably wait another couple of years before drinking and it'll enter a brooding moody phase that'll be wonderful

July 11, 2023 - 92-93+ this has left its baby fat phase and shut down some but still has lots of dark ripe fresh fruit but a load of tannins and acidity also. Its not really near Peak and needing more time. Dark tart cherry fruit, Earth, minerals, stone, dark plum. Good concentration. 24 hours later still showing the same but no drop in fruit. Hopefully will open up again with more age. Will retry relatively soon

February 18, 2023 - Deep ruby color. Explosivebouquet of cherry and red fruits. Balanced, concentrated, complex. Sweet fresh ripe fruit of cherry, red fruits, spice. Log finish with good tannins. Drinking well now but with the fruit and tannins it can age longer. This wine might be long lived but I think the delicious fruit is best enjoyed young while it is unique instead of waiting to you get that generic old wine taste. Drink now to 2028
