90 Points

Tuesday, March 20, 2012 - Prettiest expression of (mostly) Cab Sauv I can recall offhand: here's a Bdx that will likely appeal to Burg hounds & pinot heads. Medium-bodied and silky, dark fruit with lots of violet and a gentle streak of iron. Moderate in acidity and concentration. Added a bit of savoury element - call it maybe a little salinity and a whiff of roasted meat - by night three without losing the fruit & violets. Pretty much ready to go as a pop & pour; I don't know that this wants more age.
