I bought this on the estate and carefully cellared for years. It poured as deep blood red with a wonderful crimson reveal. On close inspection almost imperceptible signs of browning age. A little spice and cedar on nose. Red and plummy fruit. A sour cherry finish with a tiny bit of olive. Beautifully and surprisingly taut. Not big but balanced. Vibrant acids still apparent. Really really good. A gift.

Brilliantly balanced, with plenty of primary fruit and not showing a hint of its 15.5% abv - blind I'd have called this as $100+ Napa Cab

Spectacular! Really in a great place right now, never heavy, nicely balanced and plenty of fruit left but starting to show lots of secondary nuance.
