  This is a very nice oaky Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley.
  
  Dry on the palate and very fruity. Big and smooth. Showing nice complexity and mouthfeel.
  
  Showing blackberries, black cherries, sweet strawberries, cedar, vanilla, leather, spices, earth, chocolates, tobacco, peppercorn, coffee and mocha.
  
  Delicious and good by itself or with food. Good right out of the bottle and better with airtime.
  
  This 7 year old from the great 2014 vintage will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
  
  A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Malbec and Petit Verdot.
  
  14.9% alcohol by volume.
  
  93 points.
  
  $70.

  Wow, very strong wine indeed. Decanted and drank over 2hr period. Lighter cab style in style only compared to high rs fruit bombs, but this was incredible new find for me. Berries, white chocolate, spicy rhubarb and cherry cola on nose. Clear staining of tears, clear garnet purple color. Great mouthfeel, very long finish, tannins that fade slowly. Hint of sweet at the end as wine unfolds slowly and pleasingly on palate. Again, wow.
