I loved this wine. It's Pauillac on steroids! Super smooth and sweet tannins. Cassis, graphite and lead pencil galore with some dark chocolate notes. The finish is quite glorious. Coravined entire bottle so not much air time here but I will be decanting my next bottle.

Took advice of others here and decanted for 4 hours before drinking. Absolutely superb. Grape and floral nose, dark berries of all sorts on the tongue, perfect acids and tannins. Dark chocolate, leather, and spice throughout the finish. Smooth and chewy all at once. At 6 hours this wine was still gaining complexity. Long, long, finish. Cellar for at least 5 more years, a decade would be even better.

Silk. This is without doubt one of the best wines I have ever had. Like drinking cashmere. This is a La Conseillante of Napa

I doubt most will let this breathe long enough. Needs a lot od time out of the bottle. You will be rewarded. Dense and ripe.
