More brick in color that I recall this wine being. Decanted for an hour and then paired with cheese, sausage and crackers. It was more subtle than I recall this vintage being when it was younger. Drinking really well right now.

Purply red color, cherry warm and buttery nose, straight from bottle - the taste is cherry, cigar, full-bodied with long aftertaste, needs some breathing

75%Cab + 25% Syrah, Definitely rich dark purple red in color, moderate amount of sediment and decant about an hour before dinner, lot of nose with hints of cherry and pomegranate at that time, good legs in glass, initially tightish with tannin around mouth. Hour later, tannins nicely soften, more of rich rather than austere grapy flavor, so Syrah is having impact. Fills mouth nicely without any alcohol burn and present after flavors are generous.

Bold blend. Opened bottle for an hour before drinking. Inky hue with lots of sediment in the bottle. Great wine for the $.
