Last had this in 2013. Feel it was much better this time around. Not the greatest cab, but still has good fruit and benefited from an hour of decanting.

On the nose there's blackberry, black currants, milk chocolate & wet leather ~ On the palate this wine is big & concentrated with mild acidity & moderate tannins with flavors of black liquorice, blackberries, black cherries, mocha & dry sandalwood ~ Big & balanced

Another great Rommy cab......again here CT drink-ability date a bit suspect as it said to consume 2012.....this vintage, as with so many others, is very well constructed, excellent fruit, well balanced with flavors of black current, plum and cassis. in the glass, bright purple color with aromas wafting with fruit and spices. lighter than expected mouth-feel, but did not disapoint on the palate.

Still drinking fine. Not nearly out of gas but kind of fleshy and flabby although not an unpleasant drinking cab.

Nice nose and body, another good Rombauer Cabernet, not nearly as past as the 2012 drinkability date would indicate
