Drinking beautifully right now. Excellent red highlights with very minimal signs of aging at the edge. Plum, black fruits and beautifully structured with a full body and a long, long finish. This wine is plush with spice and beautifully integrated oak and tannins. This is very much how I like my Cabs. Other bottles still have a few years left.

Drinking well right now, especially after a long decant or day 2. I am starting to consume more and more of my 2014’s as some have started to fade. I would say that this is just beginning to hit it’s stride though. Lovely right now but plenty of life left. Tobacco, leather and tart plum. Lovely, balanced Cabernet.

Absolutely hums after a few hours in the glass. Well-structured with bright and lifted black fruit, tobacco, saddle leather, graphite and sticky cedar sap. Juicy and silky with delightfully complex aromatics.

Coravan’d a glass each of the two prior nights. Pulled the cork tonight, and the Mrs. and I quickly enjoyed what remained.
Nice legs with a good grip on the glass. Berry compote and a dark, heady aroma on the nose. Flavor profile is dark with crushed stone, charcoal and cigar.Well balanced and a solid wine at its price point.

Tightly wound. It will take another 15-18 months
