  Big, Bold, Huge, Extracted fruits. Incredible depth. Best After 1 hour but lasts all night.

  Tonight, this was a full fruit forward wine. It can still age more. Probably better in another year or two but if you want classic Napa Cab power, this is a good choice now.

  Popped and poured into decanter. Immediately has the smell of a special wine. Concentrated juicy dark plum smells. The lip of the wine bottle appeared to have sugar(?) deposits. Had with a bone in prime roast beef. The nose of dark fruit remained, on first taste super concentrated dark berrys. Full body, very round. Long finish lingers for 7-10 seconds. Washed down slices of beef which the juicy berry flavor helped to balance the saltiness/savory of the meat. Calling all cab lovers!!

  This is a powerhouse for sure! All the way from start to finish. It's young and lively right now with the acidity to allow some aging. Tannins are mild. Deep concentrated dark fruits. I'm a fan!

  Rather boisterous on the nose, this bottling shows fresh aromas of black cherry alongside pencil shavings and milk chocolate. There is solid depth to the palate, where flavors of smashed blackberry and boysenberry meet with tangy black-plum skins and roasted coffee notes on the finish.
