  Black fruits, currants, and cassis on the nose and palate. This wine is beautifully balanced and continued to open up as the night progressed. I would wait another 3 to 5 years before opening another bottle.

  Wow! I really mean, WOW! If there is a benchmark for Cab Sauv, it must be something along the lines of this wine. I dont have a lot of experience with wine but this is about as good as i ve ever had. Amazing. No point in detailing nuances. Read the other reviews. This smells heavenly, is balanced, deliciously dark fruited, and drinkable right now. Dont wait, drink now as i dont know how it could possibly get any better. (But we ve a couple more bottles just in case it does improve.) Enjoy. We sure did.

  Hold 2-3 and this should be at full potential. Magnificent but raw.

  Oh my, talk about exceeding expectation, and they were high expectations. Full black fruit, serious layers, lots of tannins - very well balanced tannins. There is a lot of complexity, which would be expected, with spice and earth along with the fruit. Everything is right about this wine, including the long very full finish.

  Great wine, already in good shape with just a 2 hour decant. Great buy year in and year out. Pitted against a 2018 Adamvs Teres and this was more red fruited, open knitted.
