Not bad. Mint, cassis and a little bit of vanilla on the nose. Med body, you don't really feel the 14.5 % which is a compliment. Slightly grainy texture, smoky with again dark fruits and vanilla. Short finish though. Overall a pleasant, forward cab.

Probably a year past its best. Still quite nice but I think this wine is better younger. Very cherry oriented. Quite a short finish - good but a little disappointing for mine.

Late new year's party at Casa bambam: Sweet fruit with chunky tannins. There are some slight green notes in the middle. The finish is a little sharp.

Nice rich notes of dark berries, spice and tobacco. Nice finish. Cannot recall other notes from memory, but I enjoyed this very much.
