  USA 2013 tasting by Sander (By SS @ De Ertepeller in Papendrecht): Beautiful dark berries in the bouquet. On the palate elegant and juicy with good fresh acidity and slightly sticky tannin. Good length. Elegant wine.

  Too juicy. Too dense. American Cab that saw too much sun. OK to drink but nothing to recommend.

  Magnum. In a good drinking window now (I find that Martini Napa Cab is best around 7-10 years). Smooth tannins, well integrated. Coffee and cherry notes.

  At opening, power, oak, complexity and tannic.
  Decanting for three hours before dinner. To be cont.
  
  After 3 hour and beyond a bold, bold CS appeared. Dry and fruity which gives a massive appearance. Perfect to accompany game.
  
  +3 yrs of potential development and probably 5-6 yrs left to drink?

  On the night I opened, I was thinking maybe it had run out of gas; it was flat and static with muted fruit. I returned to the bottle two nights later and there was significant improvement. The black fruit profile shone through, and there was impressive depth and structure. Plenty of time left here, I will likely wait a year before popping another. Really enjoyed it.
