Very aromatic nose with ripe dark fruits and vanilla. Blackberry, dark cherry, spice, vanilla on the bold palate. Soft tannins, medium plus acid, full body, medium to long spice and dark fruit finish.

Didn’t take any formal notes yesterday, but I remember being impressed by what this delivered for around $40. Plenty of body and delicious wild blackberry on the palate. A great buy.

Drank young, but this is a tremendous example of CA Cab. Fruit forward (plum, cassis), but not overbearing in that respect. This wine is clearly designed to be aged for several more years, but is still enjoyable in its youth. Bravo, but more than you think you need.
