Opened and poured 2 hours prior to drinking. Fruity nose that opened up with time. A bit vegetave at 1st, but smoothed out, soft, not tannic, with a forward berry component. Solid offering.
11/18/15 2nd bottle. nose is a bit more forward, still has plenty of fruit, but is well blended. Raising score to 88.

Limited aftertaste, egg bouquet... High tannin but not a clean taste palate. Not planning to purchase again. Was the lowest rated wine in our wine tasting. Too bold of a cab - where's the classic style?
