Very rich, without being heavy. Crisp lemon flavor dominates, might be a bit simple. It was damn good at what it does though.

Don't know how much this is supposed to go for, but I got it for about $25 and for that price, I don't think I've had a better Cab from anywhere in the world. Great balance between fruit and vegetal notes and I'm pretty hard pressed to find a lot of oak as mentioned by others. Long finish, and definitely has many years ahead of it still.

I was expecting a huge bomb, but got the opposite. Tastes a lot more like a restrained Super Tuscan or New Worldish Brunello. Herbs, licorice, potpourri, mix of cherries and darker fruits, peppery, chalky, minerally, wonderful mouthfeel. I'm feeling this, maybe it's just because I'm in a good mood, but this is getting my highest score ever. I'd take this over just about any old world/new world fusions I've had.
