Decanted for an hour plus prior to savoring this bottle. My third go at this wine and it just keeps getting more compelling. Layer upon layer of fruit and complexity, this bottle announces its pedigree early, noticeably collecting and stacking its tiers by mid-palate then pushing its integration to a long finish. Just a beautifully crafted bottle worthy of a hopeful new year.

Decanted one hour prior to consumption. Amazingly accommodating for a young Cab. Round and silky with milk chocolate at mid-palate. I wanted to sip it but I am afraid I guzzled. Delicious.

Given how big Behrens wines are, surprised this one was fairly muted. Not a ton of structure, glad we drank it now.

Prominent bing or dark cherry on the front to mid pallet. Nice lingering finish full bodied
Great wine

Awesome aromas right out of the bottle! Decanted for 1 hour and it was awesome at Mortons and our Steak and Lobster dinner.
