Guess I'm the outlier on this one. Lots of red fruit which fades mid palate and not much of a finish. Day 2 - Maybe one point better. Wine seemed to develop a little more structure. Day 3 - Started to fade. Given the stated occurrences of bottle to bottle variation in deNegoce wines, I've withheld rating for now. We'll see after a couple more bottles. Most deNegoce wines I've tried are worth what I paid but not much more (but have not tried 385 or 401 yet).

Electric purple in the glass. Someone mentioned a note of ludens cough drop - that's apt. Along with some minty herbal notes. Great nose, nice mid palate, falls off a little on the finish but great for the price and seems like it'll improve with some time.

Enjoyable now as a PnP, though no rush.

Chocolate Cherry, herb pyrazine, a bit bumpy early but smoothed out with air. Solid every day Cab.

Solid Cab, but maybe drank too quickly, seemed a bit disjointed and missing smooth transitions. Will decant longer next time.
