Loved this wine. Did no know what to expect because the wine was not ideally cellared. Nuances of tobacco and leather balanced the fruit and the mild tannins.

Nose of blackberry w/a blueberry chaser. Mediium to full bodied, w/a complex, smooth finish, along w/a dash of spice at the very end. An excellent cab, at this price point. Drinking beautifully now.

Great nose, less on the pallette. Lots of fruit, blackberries. Not much secondary flavor beyond fruit. Tasted a little stewed. Needed air, had at least 120 minutes and was still improving. Needed some food to balance tanin and slight bitterness. Overall a decent wine, but not one I'm in a hurry to retry.
