April 19, 2023 - Drinking well, bought two, Will age the other for at least another 2-4 years, could easily go further. Dark fruit, and more fruit forward actually than other similar cabs from the region. Showing off a good yield year in that sense. Hints of vanilla and brighter fruit amongst the dark.

December 12, 2021 - This is Find of the Year for me!
On the nose its dark berry fruit and spices that continue on through to the taste and adds a hint of almonds. Flavours are lush and with great depth and you find yourself holding it in your mouth just to savour. This a full throttle wine with loads of power but still hides the alcohol well. Gorgeous stuff.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 18, 2021 - Cab. Sav. usually puts me off but I'm a Red Blend fan and this is stunning....no other words for it. What it will be like in a couple of years Heaven only knows!! Such power!. Bought 2 on spec...tasted.....went back for another 3.....finished the bottle and went back for another 6. No half decent wine is cheap here and at €36 it's near the top of what I like to spend on spec. but if I can keep my hands off them and live long enough a few years should turn this into something exceptional.
