  Garnet, cherry, plum, spice, well blended fruit and tannins, slight reminiscent of veg in cab, elegant, smooth, great finish, drinking very well, why wait?
  There is no sediment in the bottle.

  From magnum. Decanted for half an hour but drank over the course of 2 hours. Initially it was all sour cherry and pencil lead but over time sweetened to plum, strawberry, black cherry, black olive, dark chocolate, and cigar box.

  Cedar and wet leaves in he nose. For a Cali cab, very soft, short finish, not much fruit but layered and remarkable.

  Tasted blind. Very dark in colour. Lots of dark fruit, tobacco, spices, hints of coffee beans, smoke. On the palate quite tight with dark fruit, firm tannins, well integrated acidity and wonderful length. Smoky, brooding, very structured. My guess was old world. Needs time, but will be excellent. This wine concluded our "Judgement of Paris" inspired tasting. The group's favourite, my No. 2. Hold. 93-94+

  The tannins have evolved nicely. Drinking well now.
