One-off PLCB purchase. Big wine, plenty of fruit, but balance seemed off. Opens after about an hour but really just smacks you with big fruit. Not much nuance here. Better WA Cabs available at this $

Drinking very well, variety of notes on the nose - vanilla, blueberry, raspberry, light spice/black pepper. Reasonably complex. On the palate, dark fruit, texture follow as one would hope. Medium long finish.
Not to disparage, but other comments about should be 15.00, or it being syrupy are pretty much incorrect and perhaps even irrelevant as it seems they likely don’t even apply to this bottle.

Big, extracted, and too much oak.

Fruity. Dry but a little syrupy. Good value. $20.

Strong edgy big and woody. Good wine if in the mood for some hard edges. Should be 15 instead of of 20.
