This has really mellowed out and now it is very supple and smooth - just rolls off the tongue. Lots of black cherry, chocolate, herbs, with slight pepper on the finish. Very enjoyable.

This was showing really nicely. I brought this to lunch as a group of us helped with harvesting Chardonnay and Riesling. The family provided wine and a huge slab of beef. The Cab Sauvignon fans really enjoyed this. The oak was manageable, decent acids, good fruit and not as much sweetness, stickiness you see from places like QC. Fairly impressed. Typical dark cassis based fruit with secondary notes of cedar, baking spices and such. Great mouthfeel too.

Enjoyed this wine. Double decanted without much time. It opened up quickly and was loaded with red and dark fruit and really smooth. Tertiary notes were beginning to show as we finished the bottle. Not a ton of complexity to the wine. Hold for the tertiary notes or drink up if you prefer the fruit.

Even smoother and more flavorful than the last bottle. Very solid wine.
