Saturday, September 24, 2022 - Drank this wine beside a 2018 Anakota cabernet and a 2016 Lariana Sixteen. The rest of the group liked this one the best - found it the most approachable although I personally found the Anakota more complex and interesting.

Full bodied with lots of dark berry, cassis and cocoa on the nose. Supple almost velvety mouthfeel. Still had some moderate tannins and lighter acidity.

Definitely know your drinking a Napa cab based wine. The petit verdot and cab franc add a "bordeaux-ish" feel to the wine that I enjoyed and feel added a little complexity.
