This is a beautiful wine that still has some life left. Took some time to open up and strut it’s pedigree but it evolved into a very nice bottle of wine after a solid decant. Notes of earth, red fruits and cherry cola notes. Stood up to the other younger wines in the group.

Decanted for 2 hours. Bold, intense nose. Full body, fantastic structure. Tastes of red fruits, currant and plums. Moves into very earthy, herbal flavors with hints of thyme. Finish is rich and long, tasting of figs.

Subtle complexities, but a bit thin. Not a powerhouse cab and a bit feminine for my tastes...

A healthy expression pushing blackberry in front. Good use of oak with chewy tannins. Long finish.
