January 18, 2021 - Mature but not over the hill. This is at its prime but not a lot of fruit left. Drink this in the next few months. Balanced, fine tannins. Very nice after an hour.

January 1, 2018 - Smooth taste, easy to drink and enjoyable. Nothing of critical note that made it stand out, but was enjoyed by all.

October 24, 2016 - Outstanding wine. Dark blackberry, ripe plums. Nose had cassis, roses and black licorice. Well balanced with fine tannin. Great CA Cabernet. I wish we had more of these.
