14.7% abv. Recent auction purchase. This tasted like a low-end Napa Cab trying to be a high-end Napa Cab. Loaded with vanilla and cocoa, tasted manipulated to me. It is "smooth" and easy drinking, but I am not a fan of this style and not at all what I look for in Cabernet.

Bouquet of fruit on the nose. Took some time to open, but then delightful. Plum, tobacco, graphite and green peppers.
