Decanted an hour and it helped. Complex aromas of plum, blackberry, cassis, cedar, pencil lead, spice and floral. Rich, hedonistic and complex flavors with plum, blackberry, cassis, floral, cedar, pencil lead, and spice . Silky smooth tannins in a long smooth finish. Showing really well now. In a really good place now.

Decanted for 2 hours. Black fruits, vanilla, cassis and cedar. Rich and deep palate, plush texture with a refreshing tannic bite on the finish. Really tasty in a modern full throttle style of Napa Cabernet.

After an hour in the decanter, this opened into a most beautiful, smooth, delicious Napa wine. 2016 is my favorite year I’ve experienced in Napa wines. This was no exception to that but was exceptional as far as gorgeous delicious wines are concerned!

Great with 30 minutes for air, not the most complex but enjoyable for a big Napa Cab.

Wow, what a bottle of wine. Saved some for second day and just as good.
Not sure how this can get any better
