  August 5, 2023 - Dark and ripe, strong earthy slight herbal notes on the nose, over black cherry and currant fruit. The more I swirl it, the more green pepper notes come off (this is on night two). Palate is big and ripe as well, with deep. slightly sweet blackberry and currant fruit, no hint of green on the palate - there is nice soft tannins and juicy currant acidity and a nice long finish. Overall actually pretty good, but probably about 1-2 years past its best.

  January 15, 2021 - Floral and elegant in the nose with less tannins and more creamy berries and delicious wood spices on the palate; long finish; overall, nice evolution in 2 years; very enjoyable as a Washington Cabernet Sauvignon wine, so 92-93 points well deserved at this stage.

  July 31, 2020 - Another spectacular wine from the Duckhorn Wine Company! I was given this bottle for Christmas in 2016 and I think I hit the perfect drinking window is 2020. Intense dark fruit flavours brambles and chocolate. A bold wine! Will have Canvas Back again!

  July 26, 2020 - Okay wine, but really rather unassuming given what I ad hoped from similar red mountain vintages. Drank over three nights and didn't really show much development.

  March 7, 2020 - Nice wine. Not very complex. Actually didn't get better with more air.
