Dark red Plums, leather, tobacco, cherry,nice acid There is beautiful balance and flavor. Great alone or with food. It is so good I wouldn't bother with details of pairing. Even fish.

Drank side by side with the 2015 Old Vines. This is a fine classic Cabernet with coffee, chocolate and dark berries. First tasted at 2 hours open and the wine was still pretty closed. Took another 2 hours to really open. At 4 hours, the fruit really pops, the tannins are tamed just a bit and this wine comes together nicely. I’d wait a year or two before opening another bottle.

A nose of blueberry and violets and blueberries, chocolate, and tobacco across the palate. Well-balanced tannins and a whole round mouth! Very drinkable now.

2 hour decant at tasting. Red blend. Nose of blueberry, pomegranate. Taste of blueberries, medium sweetness, cedar and spice in the back. Taste lingering for 20s+

Drinking great with big fruit, complex velvety mouth feel and long tannins. We are cellaring another bottle as this wine has a lot to give.
