  A bit of wood varnish on the nose, but not in a bad way, very clean, dense, lush. Maybe not quite fully mature yet. Beautiful.

  Very good cork seal; remarkably deep in color still; the nose is very classic with blueberry and blackberry, some earth and tobacco, violet, cedar and a hint of coffee. Still very young and fresh; the palate is also quite young and has plenty of tannin still there; a lovely acidity lifts this and leaves a juicy blueberry note on the finish. This was bought directly from Mount Eden in 2012, but based on this particular bottle this has decades ahead.

  This one did not seem like a perfect bottle at opening despite purchasing on release and being well stored. Held the course over several days being open, but the fruit was a little cooked. Hoping this is just bottle variation but may also be a product of an early maturing vintage.

  Boston Wine + Poker BYOW, Lincoln, Mass: A very classic minty California cabernet, still on the young side but offering a lot of pleasure.
  
  Thanks to Tom Bu for bringing this one.

  Really good with a huge bouquet. Full bodied with lush dark cherry flavor. Some tannin but well integrated. Many years of drinking pleasure remaining.
