Powerful nose dominated by black cherry with strong black cherry notes on the palate. Chewy tannins with a medium finish. I was hoping for more complexity out of this wine based on other reviews.

Awesome wine - maybe a Nickel & Nickel all-timer for us. The nose on this thing was wonderful: spicy red berry fruit and minerality. Palate was mouth-coating, almost velvety, with the vivid fruit and vanilla. The alluvial soil terroir at work here certainly showed out. The star of a late VD celebration, this cab paired very well with grilled tenderloin steak and mushrooms. Bravo!

Pours a deep vibrant purple, barrel berries and alcohol on the nose, plush insanely velvety with a hint of sweet vanilla, drying on the finish. This might be my fav N&N!

Tasted at winery. We did a tasting of about 6 different Cabs and this one stood out to me as the best. Bold smooth and chewy...just the way I like my Cabs
