  Cali-Cab à fond mais avec un bel équilibre et surtout, sans sucre résiduel. C'est huge mais ça se boit bien, surtout avec les côtelettes d'agneau

  Deep inky ruby color. Robust classic Napaesque nose of dried black fruits, charred oak, dried herbs, dark chocolate with a sweet afternote. Dry, prescient acidity, integrated tannins, palate follows through. Full body, fantastic balance, long finish.

  Needs a lot of time to open, didn't taste good until about two hours in after (after decanting).

  Drinking this wine reminded me once again just how much my preference on wines has changed. 3rd time and vintage I've had of this wine. Gave it 10 minute spin and 3 hours in the decanter and it didn't open up until the end of the last glass. Blackberry, plum, chocolate, pencil lead. Very extracted wine.
