February 4, 2014 - An elegant, balanced Cabernet with pure dark fruit and a pleasantly round mouthfeel. No heat, no excess noise - imo, a great bottle drinking well.

February 2, 2014 - dark garnet, aroma of spice and dark fruit, palate opens with dark fruit and cedar, long mid palate with notes of leather and tart but integrated tannins.
