This wine is deep ruby in color. On the nose, there are intense notes of black fruit, blackberry, black cherry, plum, cinnamon and floral notes. On the palate, layers of concentrated blackberries, licorice and cinnamon flow through the palate with silky tannins. This high alcohol wine has high acidity, full body with a long finish. A real treat

Just outstanding. Drank over 2 nights. Plenty of tannins but integrated well with full dark fruits. A fair amount of sediment also. This wine will drink well for a while!

Part of a walk around tasting at Alpine Country Club. Very nice cab, surprisingly open for business. No trace of heat, very good balance of oak and fruit, some upside potential. Score: 93-94. Relative to expectations: ++

Good but probably needs to sleep for a couple years. The fruit needs to calm down a bit but overall this is a big & smooth easy to drink cab.
