  Four hour decant. Nearly opaque magenta color. Creme brûlée, cedar, star fruit and anise on the oak dominated nose. Plush, full bodied palate, with satiny acidity. Very full tannins on the medium long finish.
  
  Interesting Cabernet. Drinking a bit young, but the palate is pretty amazing. Could improve significantly in another year or two.

  Four hour decant. Very deep ruby magenta color. Cherry Jolly Rancher, basil, cinnamon scone, sautéed blueberry and subtle coffee grounds on the rich, plush, decadent, somewhat manufactured nose. Zesty, tangy, mouth filling, tongue drying palate, with good, lingering acidity. Full, round tannins on the medium long finish.
  
  This is a fun interesting wine, but somewhat disjointed at the same time. It’s slightly extracted and heavy. There’s an overall lack of depth.
