Straightforward near entry-level California Cab. Improved quite a bit after 90 minutes of air. Deep ruby in the glass.Powerful nose of ripe, plush plum and blueberry pie with a heavy oak influence with notes of tobacco leaf, new leather and menthol.Palate shows a young, hot wine with unrelenting and astringent tannins and high acidity. Needs a rich, salty protein.Flavours match the nose but the alcohol and bitter tannins are dominant.Maybe better in time. Drink 2024+

Nice juicy blackberry and black cherry framed by solid tannins. Good QPR at $23.
