Dark garnet to purple color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of camphor, black pepper, black cherries and tar. Flavors of Bing cherries, raspberries and plums. Medium acidity, firm tannin, full bodied. Drink over the medium term with air.

Had over several days. Opened up with a bit of heat on the finish. With air, soft and supple with notes of oak, vanilla, tobacco, and clove. Decent length of finish.
Day two did not open up as I had hoped. Great value for Napa Cab. Pushing almost 15%, which was a drawback for me.

Creme de cassis, black pepper and juniper. A little simple and fruit forward but still well balanced between sweet and savory. Tasted very classic Napa Cab to me.
