Nose: beautiful, fragrant, gorgeously balanced between sweet fruit, spicy-green-herbaceousness, and oak - blackcurrant, real maraschino cherry, green bell pepper, red chile, cedar mulch, bourbon vanilla, a hint of fresh thyme. Palate: acid-tannin balance is superb (both on the higher end of medium), not overly full-bodied, alcohol very restrained, finish is medium, integration is superb. And for the quality, this is actually fairly priced. I wish more (all?) Californian Cabernet Sauvignon could be like this. Even better the next morning. 13.8%, $60.

Hitting its stride right now. Opened 90 minutes prior to steak dinner and it drank great.

Relaxed cab - dark fruit on front, tobacco mid, smoky finish. Bit of blueberry on the back.
