  Drinking exceptionally well right now, still big and bold with black and blue fruit and well balanced for a nearly 16% wine. Decanted for 90 minutes, perfection.

  Surprise, surprise, surprise...after having been disappointed with Hall's Katheryn cab, this bottle came across nicely. The flavors of dark berries with slight floral (think forest) and mild body gave an interesting wine for the evening. Decanted for about 1 - 1 1/2 hours. The tannins were mild with nice acidity which was calmed by the high alcohol content. More life to go on this wine, which appears will only get better with time, however, it is very drinkable now.

  Corked. Beyond disappointing in a bottle at this price point. The cork itself offered a faint whiff, but I tried to be hopeful. There were some fruit notes in the initial nose, but the taste was clearly off. Let it sit. Then tried again. Much clearer on the corked side. VB gave it a try and spit it right back out.

  Huge Ca cab coming of its own now. Great dark fruit, nuanced forest floor and exceptionally long finish.
