  Just a classic call cab. Currants, cherries and raspberries.fruit just keeps going to finally make way for a little mint and chocolate on the finish. Perfect condition but no reason it won’t keep going.

  Needed about 30 minutes in the glass for the reduction to give way to the purple/blue fruits, pencil box, espresso bean and potting soil.

  Decanted and poured. Dark purple color, to very light brownish at the edge. Black fruit and pencil lead on the nose. Nicely complex palate of blackberry, blueberry, chocolate, toffee, hints of spice, graphite, clay dust. The slightly bitter element is skillfully integrated, like Jennifer Lawrence's perfume in American Hustle, and positively additive. Full bodied, long finish, nicely-integrated, soft tannins. Overall a very high-quality and pleasing drinking experience. 95, going on 96.
