  Structured, rich complex but still too young. Give this 5 to 10 years

  Our Club had its steak and seafood night so after having some chardonnay at the house our group went to the club and proceeded to drink three bottles of cabernet. This, a 2014 Realm Tempest and a 2015 Switchback.
  This was the star of the show. Opened 4 hours prior to going to dinner and another hour as we drank the Tempest. The nose is all fruit. The palate was berries, figs, currents, tobacco, dried leaves and a touch dried thyme on the finish which was exceptionally long. Unfortunately my only bottle of the 2010 but it was consumed with great friends. I am actually tempted to rate it a 98. So 97+ for last night.

  This was amongst the best Cabs I have ever had. This wine was so well integrated, silky, and just the right dark fruit and light earthy notes that I love so much in a big red. It clearly had lots of years left and, I think, It should keep improving with a few more years. I had it open for about 1.5hrs before drinking and drank over another hour - and the last taste was better than the first - if that is even possible.

  Might be in a weird spot now. Not like the awesome bootle about 4 years ago. Drank a glass and even waited another 2 hours. Very red fruit palate but overly tart and lacking the sweetness from prior bottles. Still a long finish but lacking the wow factor. Would wait now. Disappointed.
