I’ve drank two of these bottles so far. The first was just good example of a 20 year old cab. The second bottle I drank, however, was mind blowing. Straight from the bottle, it was bursting with blackberry and over ripe raspberry. Still absolutely powerful on the palate and brewing with earthy berry flavors and spices. That bottle was one of the last two to be sold in the NY capital region. Won’t open the other one for at least a few years. -Couldn’t help but eat some sediment. It was like dry raspberry sorbet.-

Easily the best new world wine I’ve ever tasted. Inky, deep ruby in the glass. Nose of ripe black cherries and prunes with slight floral hints. Still very young with overly-delightful grip and a lengthy finish. Flavors of raspberry and cranberry. I’ve purchased two more, intending to drink between 2019 and 2024.
