Double decanted for 4 hrs, deep ruby, dark fruit on the nose, black cherries on the palate, med. tannins, long finish; outstanding & just entering its drinking window, drink or hold, no rush
Lost nothing on day 2

Massive, almost overwhelming, concentration and lots of sediment. Explosive fruitcake, cassis, and charcoal flavors. Huge blue fruit nose. Will wait until 2030 to open next bottle. If you must pop now, stand the bottle up for a day and give it a few hours in the decanter. Outstanding wine, but it's screaming right now and needs way more time.

My favorite Bevan Cab Sauvignon from Stags leap area. Gorgeous concentration, fruit forward, blackberry, fruitcake, licorice, sweet cedar wood, long rich finish!

Cellared since release, perfect cork and fill. Dark purple. Intense nose of ripe dark fruits, cassis, spice, oak. Huge body, flavors follow the nose, ripe lush fruit, decent acidity, moderate tannins, long finish. Excellent to outstanding.
