Raspberry, cherry and hints of blackberry.Acidity balances this out though it lacks some depth and the finish seemed clipped. — 7 days ago

2020 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 1.5 and 2.5 hours. Light-medium/medium body. A tweener. Not exactly feminine but not exactly masculine either. Delicate in places, yet structured and rigid in others. Nice supple, soft entry palate. Lacking on the back end/finishing palate tho. Most of the 2020's I've had from Napa (that got picked/processed before the fire...so admittedly less than 20 reds) have been from producers that religiously pick earlier to mitigate/avoid fire fallout risks. This was the one outlier-so far-that didn't totally measure up. The 2021 version of this (9.6-tasted x2) is so good, however, that I'm prepared to overlook any indiscretions from this winery's 2020 releases. 11.14.26. — 3 hours ago

Beautiful California cab. Drinking great but just entering the window. Fruit forward with dried figs and plumbs a nice herbal finish but just a hint. Most enjoyable with a prime filet. Does not get much better. — 11 hours ago

Medium ruby; heady nose of savory red and dark fruits with baking spices and a touch of pepper; palate is concentrated and full with plenty of extract and zesty acidity, dusty tannins add body. Enjoyable tonight but only if needs must. — a month ago

Medium rubi robe, nose of blackberries, anise, crushed flowers and a peppery note at the end. Its very smooth and mineral, medium bodied, great tension, long, asian spices, dark cherries and top soil, this is a top notch wine and very distinctive for the vintage. Great now but no rush. — 4 months ago

Noticeably deep colour , deeper than all the others , medium deep ruby quite thin ruby rim . Quite herbal and deep on the nose , with darker fruit profile . Blackberry , dark plum, dark cherry , earthy herbal touches. On the palate this is quite dense and rich with dark cherry , kirsch, blackberry , and a richer frame . Quite gritty but ripe tannins , with balanced acidity . Decent lightly chalky cherry , blackberry, herbal tinged finish . Very different from all others , darker and richer , riper . However , still well made , though not that charming or , dare I say it ‘Burgundian’ , probably as expected . I believe this also needs some time , come back in 5 years and drink over the next 10 or so. — 4 months ago
