  Dark red (almost black), 90 minutes airtime in bottle, earthy black currant/blackberry nose, dense black fruit on palate, hint of chocolate, touch of oak, very smooth long finish. Our last bottle sad to say.

  Final Wine Tasting Dinner of 2021: Green capsicum, blackcurrant, black olive, with excellent French oak handling gives this wine a distinct cool-climate feel. The nose is open for business. In the palate, this is a mixture of ripe Napa fruit and some herbaceous elements, so there is a combination of leanness and richness to the palate that is complex and inviting. Certainly mature, but no hurry.

  A 3 liter Pulled from dads cellar for Father’s Day and left resting upright for three days.
  
  The cork was quite dry and took some effort to remove. I ended up drilling out the cork with a bit and drill…. Perhaps a lesson can be created. I digress.
  
  The wine was trip,e decanted to remove cork residue. Baking spice and soft fruit was very apparent and appealing. Still showing a nice red hue rather than brick in tone. Over four hours it held up well. Obviously, a wine to drink up, the large format does offer some safety margin for those slow to the cellar.

  my last bottle, time has been good to this. slight bricking at the rim. Slight funk when first opened, then blew off over a few minutes. Quite aromatic with blackberry, black cherry, currant, spice, vanilla, earth. Still lots of fruit with black berry, black cherry, spice, currant, earth, chocolate. Medium bodied with a long smooth finish.

  Sensational Napa cab. The fruit was still fresh, oak was in balance. Showing some complexity, but overall just a great bottle.
