(Januik Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley) A bit closed up and brooding at present but showing high toned herbal notes, spice, licorice, and black cherry. Rich and dense on the palate with abundant, penetrating dark cherry flavors and a long finish. 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5%Merlot, 1%Cabernet Franc, and 2% Malbec. Champoux, Klipsun, Ciel du Cheval, Red Mountain and Weinbau vineyards. Aged 20 months in French oak. 1,597 cases produced.

It’s definitely past its prime, but surprisingly good. Still a decent amount of oak on the nose and palate. Blackberry and plums with tannins. I’m not sure if it ever reached its lofty status, but it was a great value at the time.

Don't recall detailed notes. Do recall it was good. I believe WS originally scored this 94pts back in the day when I paid more attention to such things. I don't think I'd go 94 at this point, but certainly 90-91.
