Decanted 2 hours then back into the bottle to take to HMC's for dinner. Slow ox'd there for another 2+ hours til it was gone. Best at the 2 hour mark when it went back into the bottle right before it ultimately fully softened and turned fully integrated. Rich, black mountain fruit with notes of graphite and tobacco and mild herbs in the background. One of my fav vintages of this one. Still pretty good qpr to be had with this one.

Pop n pour, nice big juicy cab, just the way I like them. Slightly dry but really huge. Still too early for this big boy but give it some time and this can be tremendous

shows a lot of potential but at least a couple of years away
