I love it. Intensity off the charts, perfume and flavors full of cherries and blue flowers and toast. My wife says that it’s almost too fruity or reaching non-varietal, but as a Cali Boy it’s right up my alley.

A bit early to drink per the winemakers notes (recommended 2017-2023). Very fruit forward. Lacking a bit of the complexity that age would accentuate.
