What an amazing bottle! Velvety and so complex. Breathe for one hour but definitely could use more time. Will let the experts describe it but oh man this was a treat! Had it with grilled tajima wagyu ribeye and morels sauce. Highly recommend it and this wine will keep for decades i imagine!

Very nice cabernet franc. Medium bodied. Ready to drink now or can wait 2-3 more years. Quite jammy and black fruit forward, which I personally like. Surprisingly smooth. Price is also competitive. Definitely a nice find and recommend to try.

Way too young right now. I wish i wouldhavebwaited another 5-10 years before opening as it still not mature. Definitely can be a great wine down the road.

Outstanding! Decanted for 3 hours. Ready to drink now but could also be kept for 2 more years for better result. Very smooth but at the same time hedonistic. Heavy bodied black berries. Wish i had more!

Typical great wine from realm. Inky profile and black fruits. Had it with some dry aged wagyu steak and went together well. The only knock on it was that I felt it was not as aromatic as the other realm wine I had such as the tempest and the bard. Still overall it was a good juicy realm wine and will definitely keep trying more.

Nice full bodied napa cab. Inky black but very juicy and mouth full feel. Very smooth. However, I only decanted for over an hour so definitely needs more breathing time. Black berries aroma. Can be drunk now but better wait for another 5 to 10 years.

Very nice chilean wine and great vintage. Full bodied and quite juicy with lots of black berries taste. Quite clean finish. Decanted for 2 hours but definitely could use longer as it still tight at the end. A good wine that can be cellar for next 5 to 8 years.

Inky shades, heavy bodied with quite fruity after taste. A slight hint of spiciness too the finish. Overall quite nice but doesnt wow for me. Should start drinking now. Typical australian shiraz.

Medium bodied but leaning towards light. Red berries with hints of vanilla. A bit of dry acidity mouth feel on the finish. Very nice to drink and will improve for sure in next 5 years.

Corked but manage to filter and get debris out. Old wine feel with oaky after taste. Got better after a couple of hours. Heavy malbec.

Nice red blend. Cabernet sauvignon, camenere, and carignan. Decanted for an hour but still tight. Can definitely use a few more years in the cellar.

Nice bottle, breath for 30 minutes. Slowly gets better. The merlot stood out alot more than the syrah. Black berries perfume with a clean finish. Tasted a bit sweetness in the end though.

Beautifully crafted wine. Decanted for an hour before drank. Smooth and silky but shows big complex body. Lots of red fruits and vanilla note. Drank this with a very goid kobe steak. Definitely can stand to cellar another 5 to 7 more years before ripe but awesome to drink now.

Wonderful wine, definitely one of the more unique and rewarding 2013 napa cabernet out there. Great perfume from mature oak and black fruits. I also got a lot of caramel as well. Powerful wine but at the same time very subtle finish. Definitely could cellar for many more years but also unbelievable to drink now.

Nice Cabernet Sauvignon, ruby red with plump fruits and berries. Beautiful aroma of violet and cherries. However, quite high in alcohol content and one can taste it. The finish at first was rough but as i left it open for an hour things starts to smooth out more. Definitely go well with steaks though.

Wow, what a great malbec! Decant for 2 hours and drank over another 2, the wine gradually develops and open up. Got alot of oak and caramel perfume but body was smooth. Next time will try decanting longer, but highly recommended. Drink now!

Nice wine to have with food. Lots of green pepper and powerful. Dont have to decant too long for it to unleash. Smooth but feels like a more heavier wine.

Light bodied, a high acid but settles down nicely after 30 minutes. Nice everyday wine for a hot day.

A bit on the heavy side, high taninn, should improve with age, hold for 5-8 years.
