May 15, 2015 - Still young with heavy tannins. Needs more time to integrate. Was better shabbos morning 12 hours after opening
December 26, 2013 - Dark garnet towards purple with on the nose classic cassis and dark cherries with notes of mint flavored chocolate. Full-bodied and concentrated with on the palate plenty of black fruit including again cassis, cherries as well as blackberries followed by herbs, notes of vanilla pipe tobacco and dark chocolate with good acid and near-sweet tannins gently coating the mouth on the long finish. Very nice! 14.5% Abv.
June 8, 2013 - Great, clean, new world cab. Still maturing and developing
February 22, 2013 - The nose on this wine is screaming with black fruit to start with black cherry, blackcurrant, some green notes, and eucalyptus, over time the wine opens its nose to mounds of graphite and dirt. The mouth is rich and ripe with a bit of date, along with cassis, black plum, crushed herb, bell pepper, concentrated fruit, all wrapped up in sweet cedar and sweet mouth coating tannin. The finish is long and spicy, with tons of malt chocolate, leafy tobacco, licorice, and vanilla.
