Blackberries, dark currants, black cherries, plums, tobacco, leather, cedar. Had some left two days after opening and it was even better. Still young. Friend opened this and I knew it would be early.

Bought off the list at 111 Chop House in Worcester MA. Decanted tableside and open up nicely over 2 hours. For a relatively young wine it was very approachable. Initially dark fruited, more chocolate notes became more forward. Price was very reasonable for $126 on the list.

Medium plus nose is classic, baking spice, dark florals, cassis, espresso, mocha, graphite. Palate matches, a little more standard. Well done, I would hold for development.

Smooth as only a Napa Cabernet can be. Without a doubt a quality wine and enjoyable, but missing that special oomph that the best Napa Cabernet provide.

Drank at Papa’s Steakhouse. Double decanted. Wine rocked right off the start. Deep dark berry’s on the nose and taste. Long finish.
