2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Event (Minneapolis, MN): Liked this better than the Oakville tasted side by side. Dust, earth, cherry, blueberries, mild oak and spice. Smoother wine and medium plus finish. Drink now to 2028.

OK, didn't stay away from this second bottle (see earlier tasting note). Consumed with grill steak, ideal pairing. Aerated into a small based decanter. The wine was very approachable immediately and evolved beautifully through the evening (~4 hours). Soft tannins, medium acid, primary and secondary flavors. Only shortcoming is finish was only medium. Wish I had more of this.

Already nicely aged, super soft tannins, some secondary notes on nose and pallet. Will welcome seeing how second bottle ages if I can stay away from it long enough.
