  Remember the girl in high school who was so sweet that she was boring...?
  
  The nose of this wine is strong and rich with jammy blackcurrant. A monolithic, sweet, fruit forward body dominates the palate. Only soft tannins remain, ready to drink now. A surprising tobacco note on the round finish.
  
  ...she smokes?

  PNP, second bottle tonight I found serendipitously while ruminating through my cellar,, seems rather consistent with previous notes, dark fruit, a bit disjointed, big oak,, ok nothing more.

  Decanted 1 hr, simple, 1 dimensional with lots of cedary oak, soft fruity finish that saves this cab from being draino.

  This bottle was easy enough to drink but lacked complexity, with modest amounts of fruit, kinda boring.
