A very good wine, 94 points on day one. Day 2, not much difference. Dark fruits, blackberry, dark cherry, currants as some slightly green herbal notes. Slightly softer than anticipated but good non the less.

Big bold cab from Sonoma. TRB is the winemaker and has all the hallmarks of one of his wines. Beautiful black fruit profile blackberry, black cherry and cassis. The notes of chocolate and vanilla were almost too much but the fruit brought it back. 94 points.

Absolutely outstanding wine. May be worth more than 95 as I cannot imagine how it could be better. That said, it is very new world and drinking great right now, at this relatively young age, with a great balance of fruit and lots of depth and structure. Soft tannin. Great balance. Excellent finish.
I have gone through a case of this wine but it's been over a year since I have added a note. This wine if fabulous and holding up wonderfully. Still another 5 years minimum before I would see any falling off. We let it breath for about 1 1/2 hours before taking to restaurant. Paired extremely well with a grilled Elk Denver Leg served with bleu mac n cheese.
