May 18, 2024 - Deep, dark, reddish-purple garnet in color; almost opaque (mega-purple?). Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe dark fruit aromas of cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty notes, spices, minerals, cocoa, smoky & vanilla/oak in the background. Medium bodied with a good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blueberries & currants with spices, herbs, minerals & a bit of oak/vanilla. Lingering finish. Quite accessible at present & appears to be made for the near term. As one commentator noted, not as rich as previous vintages. Flavors here appear to be a bit manipulated, but that appears to be standard with modern winemaking. Very good QPR for a Napa Valley single vineyard Cabernet at its price point but definitely not to be mistaken for an upper-level Cab; just a straightforward daily quaffer.

May 14, 2024 - Interesting and flavorful, but not a great wine. Bacon fat, smoke extract, umami, plum, and a bit of red fruit. I'll either leave my other 2 bottles for years or pull them out to show an example of bacon fat in wine.

May 8, 2024 - Not bad. I'm not sure why it's getting all the bad ratings; I've been drinking this over 3 nights, and every night, it gets better. Typical dark fruits and some berries Under $18 you can't go wrong
