Incredible, especially after decanting for about 90 minutes. Notes of dark fruit, such as blackberries, dark red cherry, currants, plum. Quite velvety. Tannins soften after decanting. Delicious.

Black currants, plum, blackberry fruit, combine with mocha, graphite, some herbal character (thyme), violets and a slight smoky flavor wrapped in soft and well integrated tannins and a deft bit of oak. Leaner and more elegant than many Napa cabs but typical of the vintage. Probably not going to improve much with time but certainly not dead.

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle.

Under-whelmed... minimal fruit, bland. Will let the rest of bottles lay down for a few more years, maybe something magical will happen.
