Made the mistake of popping and pouring without reading CT first. Was treated to an acetone nose and similar taste. Nothing memorable at all. Will decant for at least an hour for my final three bottles

Decanted 2 hours. A very well-made Cab. Medium bodied, with great black cherry fruit, nice acidity, chewy tannins, and a lovely dark mocha finish. Drank well with air, but could probably use some more cellar time if you want to pop & pour. Drink now with decant, but ideally cellar for another year or two. Then enjoy through 2020+.

Solid wine. Liked the reasonably expressive nose and how nice and smooth this is drinking. Got some nice vanilla/oak, carmel mixed with some plums and graphite or pencil lead. Medium finish and quite enjoyable to drink.

Very Bordeaux in flavor profile. Not for the fruit bomb legion. Just a well balanced beauty.

Pleasant backbone of black fruit with plentiful firm tannins. A keeper that should last for a while longer in the cellar.
