Not as good as the 2015 in my opinion. More acidic and less chocolate on the palate. Shorter finish - maybe needs more time.

Great leathery blackberry aroma and not that tannic. Opened up quite a bit and changed from glass 1 to 2 with more complexity and spice in the second glass. Long finish with a nice taper.

I taste mint and smell the sea. Wonderful and unique cab tasted at the heitz tasting room. Staff told me they think it gets the minty flavor from a eucalyptus grove by the vineyard. Love this wine

A little spicy on the nose with pepper, anise and leather. On the palate I’m getting some cherry and oak followed by a mid length lighter finish.
