Thursday, August 27, 2020 - Great from the first sip. Much better than the bottle tasted 18 months ago -- tannins have integrated nicely .
Luscious fruit, dark berry, cocoa, spice, oak. Long finish with a touch of complexity. A rich cab.
Paired well with meatballs in a red sauce. Great wine after a weekend of Michigan wine tasting.
