Rich berry and blackberry notes, with tobacco and spice notes. Strong tannins with a little heat from the alcohol. Not the best cab I have had from them

Paired with Ad Hoc short ribs. Drank beautifully. Hour decant, kept chilled. This was a refined glass and is ready for showtime. Dark berry fruit, blackberry and blueberry on the front. Spice and oak on the back. Finish was polished, fully integrated, and smooth. Spice, oak, and bramble jam on the mid length finish.

A lot of dark fruits, hint of leather, graphite, earthy in a Napa style. On palate, tannin is so smooth, acidity is higher than I remember. Balanced. Alc is not noticeable at all. Very good wine.

After letting it sit open for about and hour it really mellowed. First drink after open was very alcohol forward. But after sitting open the wine really opened up. Rich in color dark ruby red good structure. There are strong tastes of leather and plum and rich berry notes. This wine is getting really coming into form and will be better as it ages even more. Would buy more

A lot of fruits on the nose, smooth tannin, ok acidity, really nice wine to drink, not nearly as good as the top Napa cabs.
