deepish red color, fresh cherry and pepper nose, dried herbs, on the palate a ripe cherry fruit in the center with substantial aged herb notes around the edges, fine classic finish of good length, a calm midweight and quite good, ready to go.
****, ready to drink and time in hand

Cork crumbled when trying to remove it. On the palate it still showed some structure w softer tan is due to the age. The color is purple with brown edges so it looked like it was getting close. It was soft On the tongue w plenty of fruit ... dark cherry, casks, brown leather ... acidity low and tannis were pretty muted. Felt more like a merlot vs a Napa cab.

Enjoyable for our palate. Wine has aged nicely and retains some power & fullness (but if you are expecting full power cab, this ain't it). The softness balances nicely with the remaining acidity and fruit. You can still feel some tannin and alcohol. Drink up

Well balanced with some tannins and fruit alongside savory notes. Don't imagine this getting better, so drink up.
