  Slightly dusky ruby. Semi-opaque. Nose of damp earth, hints of cinnamon stick, old saddle leather, oak emerges with time. Palate is wonderfully rounded, lots of slightly dusky blackberry, some Asian powdered spices. Quite resonant on a mounting finale. Surprisingly mature but a fresh mintiness came out surprisingly with extended time in the glass, almost Lazarus-like, because it definitely needed extended time to show its full character. Thanks, Daniel!

  Not blind tasted. Enjoyed at our wine tasting group's annual "interesting red" potluck. The expert in our wine tasting group said okay, but over the hill. I liked it.

  This was a perfect bottle of wine. Well worth the wait, I wish I had more.

  Great cab. Very well balanced, but a little light on the mouthfeel. Earth tones and licorice
