  Wow….😮 great wine and had integrated tannins and acidity. A well balanced amazing Cabernet that was a privilege to drink. My last bottle of Hourglass. Might have to look to acquire more since it aged so well

  Decanted an hour the consumed over following 1.5 hrs. Doing this from memory...
  
  Wonderful garnet color with the tiniest hint of bricking along the rim. Elegant and complex on the nose and palate, with classic dark red fruits and a bit of earth thrown in. Medium body and velvety texture. Persistent finish.
  
  My only bottle so I won't be able to follow up, but would say it's in a great spot now, fairly typical "plateau" stage before going to secondary characteristics.
