This is more refined the second time around. Pulled a few fun bottles and this has gotten to a place that it's beyond the simple side. Leather, dark cherries stand out on the nose. Dark fruit on the palate is sitting beautifully. Tannins still slightly aggressive but it was enjoyable. I'd still pick this as a Cabernet blindly. Wish I would've bought more!

Love this wine. Drinks like a Cabernet almost but has the stuffing and beautiful dark fruit. Needs some time for the tannins to fall back
