Would never guess the alc is 14.9. Nice dark fruit, blackberry near the end of the finish, acidity, and balance. This is one I will have to restrain myself on. Easy to drink a 25 wine during the week, but if the window is 2014-2019....I'm missing out by drinking early. Much better than the last bottle which must have been a touch off.

If the 2014 to 2019 window on CT is to be believed, this wine is going to be fantastic. It was great with burgers and then steaks on another night. Great balance with no component showing more than any other. Good fruit. I'm not convinced about the drinking window and I'm not sure I noticed the structure for it to last that long. What do I know?

Nice notes of raisin and tobacco. Smooth tannins contribute to a supple, medium body. Pleasant finish
