Actually gave this a slightly higher score than our previous three tastings. Similar notes but was a perfect match with the shish kabob and showed some extra nuances in the finish and complexity. Blackberries, black cherries, black currants, licorice, and leather in the nose. Rich black fruits and chocolate in the flavor. Medium to full bodied and a long silky finish. Definitely drinking well right now.

Dark center, red rim with some signs of age. Sweet and complex nose, brambles, cigar box, stones, plums and black cherries. Smooth, excellent texture, black cherry compote, quite intense, a little minty, reasonable acidity and tannin but clearly on the decline, finish of ash and mature fruit (touch of dried leaves), very good length. Excellent Dunn Cab, drinking very well but will be good for several more years. A reminder that even the regular Cab is best at around 20 years.

Dark ruby color. Still a decent amount of fruit with hints of cherry and tobacco. Exceptional with grilled steak.
