Blue and black fruited--chewy and a bit heavy on the palate. Fruit is maybe starting to get tired and not sure these bigger styled cabs drink well once they shed their primary fruit. Drink now.

Nose indicates moderate fruit flavor, taste follows suit. Nice structure, maybe could have decanted before hand. Almost land toward old world style, with low fruit. Tannins mellow with glass time and oak is apparent

Very good for the price. Very deep, concentrated fruit.

Past it’s prime. Wine had nice black fruit, but now just flat. Don’t hold any longer.

Tannins still strong, not much fruit, heavy oak.
