The bigness has been reigned in with time and this was quite nice. Only took 10-15 minutes to open up and showed nice integration of the wood and fruit. Probably at its peak for me.

Big wine. Powerful fruit. Big tannins, but not disjoint. broad on the palate. Great spice and light wood on the nose. Cherry and strawberry. Minor, lovely VA. One of the best Bullies I've had. Palate builds and moves seamlessly to a slow long fade on the finish. Very well integrated. PDQ93

Drank over several nights. No formal notes. Nice wine still drinking well.

Big and burly. Lots going on, but well balanced.

Another big fruit bomb that I simply have trouble distinguishing as cabernet. Not a bad swiller but not really anything I would brag about.
