Strong blackcurrant on nose. As it opened up, had black cherries, blackcurrant and a mint-herbal character. Long finish. Balanced and drinking nicely, has some time left but no real reason to wait.

(Ladera Cabernet Sauvignon Lone Canyon Vineyard) Very dark purple color; vanilla and blackberry nose; light, blackberry and coffee palate with big tannins; medium finish (The cepage here was 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Merlot. This was the 2nd release from this vineyard, where the yield is one and a half to two tons per acre.)

Cork in excellent condition. Quite dark red. Fullish body. Still showing tannins, with fruit in the background. Better the second day.

Excellent. Drinking wonderfully now. Great example of aged Cali Cab. Grill a steak and pour!
