Wednesday, January 11, 2012 - Opened, poured, evaluated at 1 hour
Color - Garnet, not opaque, really fairly light for a cab in this day and age.
Nose - the first thing I notice is a dusty/ leathery character (pleasantly so). Under this is a warm cherry character and a hint of mint.
Palate - Acid braced sweet cherry fruit. This is backed by a bit of cola sage. This wine has really started coming together since 6 months ago.
Feel - medium body, a few medium tannins on the end. Medium finish. This really is a decent wine
