January 8, 2022 - Pretty classic napa cab. Big, red and black fruit. Some hints of chocolate on the finish. Was tight out the gate and had some firm tannins. Mellowed some with air but not much. I think it can improve with some bottle age. Not disappointed with this WT mystery buy. Very few bottles justify the $125 msrp and this is no exception imo. But very nice nonetheless.

October 7, 2021 - This score is for enjoying now, I think the potential is there for a higher score in years to come.
If you love Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, I think this checks a lot of the boxes you're looking for. Dark red fruit, leading to a black fruit finish. Since this is still so young, you'll taste just a little bit of oak on the finish, along with chocolate and espresso.
The nose is a bit closed at this early stage. You'll need to vigorously swirl to reveal some brighter fruit aromas that just barely escape the wine's structure.
This is solidly made, and enjoyable. It should open up and be better in a few years. At the $125 retail price point, competition is very tough. I'm not sure it's worth that price, but was well worth the sale price I paid. If it were possible to reduce the price to $100 or less, it would be a strong contender at that price point.
