PNP. Dark fruit, dark chocolate and a touch of leafiness on the nose. Medium bodied wth red and black fruits and a nice tannin/acid balance. I will drink mine over the next 5 years. Solid 90 points

Blackberry, black cherry, oak, vanilla, baking spices…smooth after about 20 minutes in the glass. The nose is consistent with the palate. Ok, this is a tasty and smooth Bordeaux style blend that gives a lot. Impressive for a young 2018. mouthfeel is fair, but the finish lingers very decently. I appreciate the distinctive spice most likely from the Cabernet Franc. If you like left bank claret style blends from WA, this may be worth stocking up on as an everyday drinker. Nice going, Matthews!
