PnP. Dark red color. Nose seems a little oxidized on the nose, which was strange as the cork was good. Fruit forward with plums, blackberries, and subtle anise. Medium plus depth and finish. Not what I remember from V29.

1hr+ decant. Dark red color. Nose contains oak, dark cherries, anise, and a touch of vanilla. More dark cherries on the palate with some cinnamon and distinct V29 flavor. Medium depth and finish. Overall very nice!

Rough around the edges. I’ve had it in the past. It just seemed to have an overly smokey, tobacco flavor. One review mentioned licorice…maybe that’s it but it’s not a typical smooth, easy drinker

Very un-Cali Cabernet. Super herbaceous. Licorice. Almost a jaggermeister vibe to it. Very green on the nose and lacking structure, tannins and finish. Low QPR, clearly not my cup of tea.

This wine was built to not need decanting but it did. It wasn't great PnP but definitely was better night two.
