  PnP
  Dark red fruit and fresh tobacco on the nose with just a slight hint of toasty oak.
  Pure silk on the palate bursting with fruit and intensity. It is medium to full body with medium acidity and strong tannin.
  This wine is a powerhouse that is still drinking well. The tannin may never fully integrate so enjoy now and over the next 10+ years with a steak!

  Brilliant deep blood red in the glass.
  The nose is pure cassis, vanilla, black cherry and black licorice.
  In the mouth it’s fully integrated. Full body, moderate acidity, and light chalky tannin.
  This is fantastic. A pleasure to drink now and likely 10+ years of enjoyment.

  Fully agree with recent reviews.
  Powerful red and black fruit on the nose. A touch of graphite, wet stone, baking spice and tobacco.
  Perfectly integrated on the palate. Tannins are fully refined and sweet. This wine is peaking!

  This wine was superb, dark garnet colored, medium full bodied, elegant, polished and balanced, nearly flawless concentrated blackberry and black currant fruits with a symphony of seamlessly integrated flavor notes of mocha chocolate, vanilla, hints of licorice, violet, spice, tobacco leaf and black olive, turning to smooth velvety mouthfeel and silky tannins on a long sensual finish.

  Another big bold Cliff Lede classic cab. Great fruit and longevity. Still young and can age longer.
