Brilliant fruit-burst nose; standard fare for B&H. Unfortunately this suffered from the "Behrens burn" -- a direct effect of their piling on the alcohol (also standard fare :| ). Many different B&H have the same flavor profile, so one must be careful to space their drinking far enough apart. Still, this cuvee was delightful, and a steal under $25.

Rather muted - from what I've come to expect of an aged Cadence - but still better than most equals at this price point. This was undrinkable on day 2 [spat it out] - so I suggest you drink up now.

Very pleasantly surprised. I was expecting a tight affair going in - but these are pop & pour ready. Great QPR here.
