May 21, 2016 - A classy and well-aged Cabernet that offers complexity without excess. Dark, almost cloudy, burgundy in color; medium in body; nose of charcoal and blackberry. Tastes of black cherry, black olive, cedar, and soy sauce, with integrated - albeit mouth-coating - tannins on the finish. 14.2% alcohol. Drink in next year or two.

April 15, 2013 - Fruit forward. Lots of black fruit on attack and mid palate. Good color and nice meniscus. Drinking well now with a good hour plus of decanting.
