This is an excellent wine but perhaps a bit too fruity for my taste. Big, smooth, very good balance apart from the very slightly over the top sweetness.

Excellent! This is quite a big and fruity wine, but it is remarkably balanced and fresh nevertheless. 13.4% alcohol. Starting to show some complex mature notes of tobacco and a slight hint of leather as well.

Lots of plum and black cherry here, note of mint; palate quite simple and fun really, dark fruits medium weight, luck of oak on the finish. Where's the quality?

675 cases made. 100% Cab. French/American oak 21 months. This has Napa style, kinda, but then there's an old world streak to it as well, kind of a stinky quality. Well made stuff.

Decanted for 90 minutes and served at dinner party. No detailed notes. Solid. Dry. Good fruit. Will improve with more time.
