Medium+ ruby. Black currant, cassis and toasted oak with violet (pretty prominent), baking spice and a hint of graphite. Medium tannins that come across fairly sweet with a low-medium acid. Definitely not a bad wine, but seems to be a victim of the vintage. As this wine opened up more the fruit came across a little stewed, something you would not expect from a 7-year old wine.

DRINK NOW! Still exceptional after a long decant, but not as good as the previous bottles

Fine tannins with definite herbal notes. Not spectacular at this price point, but nice cab.

DEEP RICH FRUIT IN THE NOSE WITH A HINT OF MINT. BLACKBERRIES AND BLACK CHERRIES IN THE FLAVOR WITH A TOUCH OF EARTHINESS. MEDIUM TO LONG FINISH.
