Drinking very well right now (2024). Critical said to drink up but I found it still having strong fruit balancing the dirt. Reminded me of some lovely aged Bordeaux I've had in the past. I'd enjoy now or over the next few years if you're lucky enough to have any bottles. Cheers! — 19 days ago

B did a great job in 2017. This is an outrageously good cab franc. Big wine but tastes like cab franc. Minerality, hint of green, plush dark fruit. — 3 years ago

2015 for dinner with grilled NY Steaks salt a pepper finish. Fruit on the wine complemented the fat full flavor of the beef but the harmonious touch of dried herbs and an earthiness of mouth feel came together. In a really big sensation of married flavors to hand you the real deal. Beautiful Cabernet. Great wine and flavor combination to remember. Excellent. No rush to dink this wine it has years. — 4 years ago

Pretty nose of rose and violets, soft blue and red fruits, touch of cocoa, hint of fresh herbs, velvet in the mouth, smooth and lively grippy tannins that makes you want to go back for more, black rock and soil. — 3 months ago

Uhhh, quite the mind-blowing bottle. The finesse of this build is pure class. The oak is prominent but is a Prince Charming to Cinderella’s sweet perfect vintage fruit set. Tropical and touch floral with an amazing Meyer lemon & crème brûlée finish (that is silky/long). Top shelf build :) — 3 years ago

Intense, elegant, and complex. Dark fruits abound with hints of mocha. Be sure to recant for a few hours beforehand. — 4 years ago

Held up reasonably well but it’s heyday was a few years ago. Still has tobacco, notes of blackberry, and chocolate but had lost the intensity I remember from earlier bottles. — 4 years ago

I wasn’t expecting this to work since the last one I opened was shot. This tastes a bit different than I expected but is still has a great color. The nose is a bit muted which I don’t think is a surprise and it’s a bit more acidic than I recall. Residual/crystalized sugar at the bottom of the glass so maybe that has precipitated out and changed the flavor a bit. The finish is lasting but more on the puckering side than I would have expected. — 6 months ago

Very sweet. On the verge of too sweet. — 3 years ago

A little 5iron punch and run - very va with a touch of Monticello fruit. Medium body with slightly sweet/tarty fruit punch. Easy to pair — 4 years ago
