September 7, 2019 - Deep purple, tons of sediment, better decant. Blueberry, earth & leather. Plenty of fruit and firm tannins.

September 16, 2016 - Still a bit rough and chunky, but the dark fruit feels like it is starting to fade. This wine seems like it is in a perpetual state of confusion, but there are still enough quality elements here to keep it interesting and palatable.

December 4, 2015 - This wine continues to be a disappoint to me. Still a clunky and tannic cabernet that might not ever fully come together and display its underlying (but currently disjointed) potential.

August 31, 2015 - Overpriced for what it is, but still a perfectly acceptable wine. Blackberries dominate. The tannins are more than dusty, they are still a bit course and firm and I'm thinking that will not change before the fruit falls off. There is Oak, some black cherry some hard leather. Maybe this wine will smooth out and become more integrated in time, but I'm not sensing it.
