    November 14, 2019 - Double blind Cab based wine tasting (Eddie V's - Tysons Corner, VA): Expressive nose displaying rich concentrated black fruit, blackberry, blueberry jam, a hint of cassis, strong spearmint, ash, lavender and limestone. Very good concentration, nicely layered black fruit, silky and polished, medium acidity, strong mineral presence and a medium to long black fruit driven finish. The strong spearmint note makes me to guess as a high end South American Cab/Malbec.
