February 18, 2024 - Black fruits, currants, and cassis on the nose and palate. This wine is beautifully balanced and continued to open up as the night progressed. I would wait another 3 to 5 years before opening another bottle.

November 19, 2023 - Wow! I really mean, WOW! If there is a benchmark for Cab Sauv, it must be something along the lines of this wine. I dont have a lot of experience with wine but this is about as good as i ve ever had. Amazing. No point in detailing nuances. Read the other reviews. This smells heavenly, is balanced, deliciously dark fruited, and drinkable right now. Dont wait, drink now as i dont know how it could possibly get any better. (But we ve a couple more bottles just in case it does improve.) Enjoy. We sure did.

March 22, 2023 - Oh my, talk about exceeding expectation, and they were high expectations. Full black fruit, serious layers, lots of tannins - very well balanced tannins. There is a lot of complexity, which would be expected, with spice and earth along with the fruit. Everything is right about this wine, including the long very full finish.

March 10, 2023 - Great wine, already in good shape with just a 2 hour decant. Great buy year in and year out. Pitted against a 2018 Adamvs Teres and this was more red fruited, open knitted.
