  Excellent; I am not a huge fan of California cabs, but this was surprisingly good; full body wine, the tannins are already soft enough but the fruit is still present; it's starting to show some secondary and tertiary notes, but still very fruit forward. Decanted for only 30 min, it probably needed a bit longer, but it's drinking really well right now.

  This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon/Franc blend from the great 2012 vintage.
  
  Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs.
  
  Showing black fruits with cedar, vanilla, leather, spices, earth, peppercorn, chocolates, tobacco, herbs and coffee.
  
  This 10 year old Single Vineyard is extracted and rich, yet elegant.
  
  This fabulous wine is drinking wonderfully right now, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years.
  
  I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.
  
  A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Cabernet Franc and 4% Malbec. Aged for 22 months in (70% new) French Oak barrels. A tiny production of only 5 barrels.
  
  94 points.
  
  $150.
