Lunch with Vittoria, Pencenza and Jaz. Ceci Insalata and a basic Pasta pomodoro. Nice concentration of dark cherry. Med body -- Round and soft in the mouth. Enjoyed the fruit, distracted by the wood, appreciated the tannins (that erased the lingering wood.) A little less wood, a little more complexity and we have something to sing about. Nevertheless a nice qpr for a US Cab blend.

Big tannic wine that definetly needs time in decanter or on the shelf. Opened up to a very multi layered wine.

Strong tannins. This wine is just starting to release. Could use a year or two more in the cellar. I wish I had bought more.
