  July 31, 2022 - Nose: mostly red with some black fruits. Ripe raspberry, strawberry, bramble, hints of mint and clove, cinnamon.
  Taste: red and black currants, plum, clove, vanilla, oak
  Notes: bigger and more acid than expected 15 years in, strong backbone and structure, not sure this will improve, but it will last a while longer. Sonoma red fruits shine through a decent amount of French oak.

  May 29, 2021 - Rich, smooth California cabernet. Opened it one hour before and was very enjoyable. Well balanced.

  July 11, 2019 - A balanced and textured wine still alive with sweet tannins. Lots of black currant and black berry flavors with hints of cocoa and cedar. Very layered and dense.

  December 20, 2018 - Lovely and much bigger and fruit forward than expected.... secondary flavors coming through cedar and graphite but still plenty of life left.
