We had the 2018 and 2019 Vintages in a vertical tasting on 8/8-9/26. Two similar wines. Both had black cherry on the bouquet and palate. That flavor was more pronounced in the 2018; the 2019 had a bit more spice and minerality. Both are similar; truly California; tannins all smoothed out. Almost full bodied.
