Highly extracted fruit, with well integrated oak, berry and leather. Cork was defective and I wonder if some of the poorer reviews were oxidized (albeit slightly) wine. Dark cherry with a lot of plum came through.

Fantastic aromas of crushed rocks, black and blue fruit. Integrated flavors of black cherry, blueberry, licorice and oak. Silky tannins and a 20-second finish. Love this wine!

Bold black fruit, earthy and licorice aromas. Fine tannins and a silky smooth mouthfeel. On the palate, plum, blueberry pie and black cherry flavors . Love Herold wines and this is no exception! For less than $100, I would contend that this wine is among one of the best cabs in the vintage!

From magnum. Lots of extract but far too little acidity or other structure. Boring and disappointing for the price.

I thought the bottle had a bit oxidation so waited until second Fay to consume. Not sure what it was, but drank decently on day two.
