Excellent bottle. Dark cab fruit with great depth but not in any way over-the-top or spoofilated. Tannins largely resolved. Nice balance. Likely drinking at peak. Nicely done.

Very extracted style. Notes of prune, and licorice. Left in the fridge for a day and the wine calmed down on the overripe fruit notes. Was better on day 2, but still not particularly my style.

A little more than a year after our first try of this bottle, we opened another with an unusual dinner combination - cheese fondue and lobster stuffed beef tenderloin. In a word, Wow! Smooth as could be, gentle enough for the cheese fondue and broadly flavorful enough for the tenderloin. The best word is subtle - fruit is dark berry; no tannin taste at all; great depth. This is one to linger over.
