At 35k feet courtesy of BA en route LHR > Chennai. Freshly opened bottle. A blend of a black fruited rich cab sauv from a cool climate feel and a bit of American oak ( at least felt like that given the spice and a touch of coconut like Rioja oak) . Well round and welcoming and drinks well at this age and felt like it could roll for a bit more. Good but not great style of wine. 89

Nice dark ruby color with moderate legs. Cherry and blueberry on the nose. Smooth moderate body. Cherry, blueberry and vanilla on the palate. The flavors did not complement each other and the taste was rather disjointed. Moderately long finish that was somewhat sour. The bottle may be beyond it's time.
