Took some time for some 'bottle stink' to blow off, but in hindsight this may have been an indication of things to come: either this is past its peak or the bottle I had was flawed. Balance was out with a green stalky characteristic most prevalent from first glass to last over the evening, with the fruit somewhat dried out. I've had St Andrews Cabs before and they're fantastic, however this failed to make the grade.
