We love cab franc. This one is bold structured. Great tannins. We could have laid it down longer. Very enjoyable. — 5 months ago

Rich and smooth/velvety. Awesome red fruit. Light but depth. Drank at mahogany with Smiths. Love this. — 4 months ago
A definitely richer, broader and longer wine than the previous 2022 - which probably needs longer aging - this 2023 seems like having matched the core of a shot. Aiming to become one of the great whites of the whole region. Lovely minerality and texture. Long and persistent after taste. — 2 months ago
Medium ruby in color; blackberries, cassis, and graphite on the nose; medium acidity; high tannins; tastes like black cherries, black currants, and wet gravel with a long finish. Needs to decant. It was much better after an hour in the decanter. Nellie said it was ok. I like it. — 5 months ago

Decanted this for an hour and a half and reserved a glass in the bottle for the second day. These notes are based on the second day, as the flavors seemed to shine through a bit more. On the nose, aromas of blackberry and leather, although had to do quite a bit of swirling to get the aromas to come through. On the palette , beautifully deep flavors of blackberry and black currant coming through, with hints of graphite and cocoa in the background. Tannins seems pretty well integrated with good acidity, although definitely some grip on the finish. Cocoa seems to come through a bit more on the finish as well. Overall really tasty, but seems to be closing down a bit for sure. I have one more bottle, so looking forward to seeing how this tastes in 5-10 years time. — a day ago
