  Lovely fragrant aromas of cigar box and beige. Blackcurrants are intense on the palate, making way for dark chocolate and supported by smooth vanilla oak. Long finish.

  Showed terrific refinement and caliber, but took about four hours in the decanter to turn the corner and show a core of brightness and sweet fruit to compliment the toasty and more full aspects of the wine. For those looking to find a sweet spot for this wine I would say now with a ton of air or feel free to forget it for another 5-7 years if you're the patient type.

  11/27/2013 - coyler Does not like this wine:

  Visual: Extremely deep inky purple, so deep there is no transparency at all. It is like staring into a dark purple abyss
  
  Nose: Strong tar, oak, vanilla and very, very dark fruits
  
  Palate: This come straight at you. it is big, it is unrepentant, it is an oak and dark fruited monster. No signs of showing any age or secondary flavors at all. Loads of creamy vanilla, wood, dark fruits. It is likes milkshake.
  
  Definitely not in my wheelhouse. I detested this wine. For others,it might be mind blowing. For me it was in a bad way. I am happy to have sold my American cabs from 1997 onward. Not rated, because of my personal biases.

  Lovely aromas of blackberry and cedar. Deep berry fruits on the palate along with coffee and cedar notes and a mouthfilling finish.
