  Good but not something I would seek out again. Notes posted liking it here are not incorrect but not my style and not a cab lovers fav either but ok with pizza. Not too old but not exactly youthful don’t think this will improve much. Drink soon. 88-89 on my very very subjective scale I guess

  Opaque blue-black color denoting heavy extraction, with dark vivid cherry red at the rim of the glass. The nose shows a tightly wound sweet black fruit core aroma clothed in a pleasant small-granule dusty hot day cloud of Napa soil, with slight slivers of cocoa, licorice, and vanilla.
  The medium-heavy viscosity mouthfeel is wrapped in a highly pronounced tannin presence. There is a reticence, (with a promise of much more depth) of fruit on the palate, which is by no means unidimensional, even at this stage, but dense and compact, making me wish I had waited at least 3-4 more years to open this wine. The finish is long and the residual flavors are indicative of what will show with more bottle time.
  I predict the grilled sirloin we will have later for dinner will cleave the wine’s concentrated structure and allow more of the its attributes to present. I am confident my score would be 2-3 points higher in the aforementioned future time scheme.
