2018 vintage. Spearmint and smashed blackberry/blueberry in the nose. Medium body. Darker than sin. Those silky/fine-grained tannins showing through with a tantalizingly delicate black plum/stone fruits finish that banks off the cheeks vs straight down the hatch. Classy and already showing waay better than the last tasting 11.26.21. It said yeah. 74% Merlot. 22% Cab Franc. 4% Cabernet Sauvignon.

2018 vintage. Muddled nose and okay finish. Beautiful medium body tho. A tad discombobulated currently. Lacking the focus of the 2016 that I tasted less than a week ago. Got the feeling it’ll escape from the self-imposed confines in the next two years and chart a defining course.
