Four hour decant, the nose is pretty classic cab, with dark fruit, a little pencil lead, vanilla. The palate is a little lean but not in a bad way, the acidity and tannins are in line with the amount of fruit and oak expressed. Medium bodied with a medium finish, this is an excellent food wine and has a solid QPR.

Surprisingly great flavors after only getting hints of spice and wet floor on the aroma. Is something wrong with my nose? Dark coffee, cherry, spice and a bit woodsy flavors. Great body with a chewy texture. Finish is tight and fruity. I have 2 more bottles to try in a year or 2.
