  Screaming deal at the $30 I paid locally back in 2016. More settled than the bottle we had 3 years back. Cassis is there along with some mocha and blackberry but missing is the graphite. Tannins have softened leaving a nice luscious finish. Wouldn't hold on too much longer; recommend drink over the next 2-3 years.

  Still a fruity wine but the tannins are very smooth.

  3/7/2017 - Bellissimo Likes this wine:

  PnP, consumed over several hours. Deep dark color. Nose shows cassis, blackberry, graphite, hint of coffee and oak--really like the nose. On the palate not over concentrated (yay) red and black fruits, more graphite, finishes like Earl Grey tea. Nicely balanced with the acids up front the tannins need a little more time to integrate or serve with proper food. Given how some CA cabs demand 3 figures as a starting point I feel this over delivers at 1/2 that and way over delivers at the $30 I paid earlier this year locally.

  Average drinking window of other vintages is 3.8 to 9.4 years, or 2015 to 2020 1/2.
