Deep garnet color, long legs. Heavy fruit aromas, to my nose dominated by dark and red (plum, cherry, pomegranate, a hint of red berries). Very full body, high alcohol, quite high acid, and very heavy tanins. The tanins are well integrated and do not just grate on the finish. This is a fabulously crafted cabernet, with many years of potential ahead of it. Delicious now, but I recommend holding for at least another 5-10 years. If properly stored, it should age and improve well for 20+ years.

Decanted for 30-45 minutes before pouring. This wine is in a really good place right now. Mostly red fruits on the nose. Great integration of fruit, acidity, and tannins. Velvety tannins that show up on the roof of the mouth and gums in a very subtle way. Paired well with a variety of foods. Sadly my last bottle.
