Community Tasting Note

bestdamncab Likes this wine: 91 points
March 25, 2019 - Enjoyed the last 2 nights, nose of black berry, black currants, and boysenberry, same on the palate, big body, tasty, score probably better in 2 years as it was much nicer the second night, mouth filling fruit, rich fruit, the floral nose was the best feature of this Cabernet Sauvignon, and a long finish. Cellar time of a year has been rewarded with this Cabernet but patience is required for peak enjoyment. Uploaded picture of bottle and cork.
