A nose of dark fruits and some spice, dark garnet in color. A full bodied Cab with cassis, plum, blackberry, with a spiced finish, at or near peak, still very good. www.winelx.com

Nice but not great. Muted nose but hints of black fruits and vanilla. Same on the palate, but the flavors died mid-palate and left a thin finish. Not getting any younger, time to drink soon.

I'm not sure what's going on here... First 2 bottles were great (October/November 2016), but the last 2 seemed to have lost the fruit - leaving a tannic, unbalanced finish. Not terrible, but not great. I have 5 more and not sure what to do - drink or hold.

Had with porterhouse and it complemented quite well and even better with dark chocolate vanilla caramels for desert.
Lots of dark fruit - black cherry and blackberry on the nose. Very soft tannins with cherry and a hint of tobacco with a peppery finish.
Highly recommended and can't wait for the appropriate occasion to consume the last of these in my cellar.

Third of nine bottles. Not as impressive as first two. This one seems to have lost its fruit.
