Note: I use a rating scale for which 85 represents a very good wine.
Just shy of the magical 90. An excellent example of Calif cabernet. Very well balanced. No real tannins. Rich and sort of chocolaty at first. No reason to hold (IMHO).

A nose of dark fruits and spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied 100% Cab, with blackberry, black currants, plum, dark chocolate and spice on finish. In a very good drinking zone, when I first sampled this wine 3 years ago it had one of the distinct olive noses I ever smelt, glad that blew off. www.winelx.com

In a good place right now, good fruit with medium tannins. A softer style Cab that was enjoyed by all in the group.
