This is an incredible, bold wine. Fruity cherry and raspberry nose with an upbeat fruit forward dominance. The mouth feel is a smooth cherry dominant cab with elements of raspberry and strawberry. The tanins are well integrated with a warm peppery finish that is prolonged by the fruit cooling in the mouth. Warm mouth finish on the swallow. This is one spectacular wine with years of good drinking ahead.

The nose on this lovely wine is dirty and earthy with nice herb, dark cherry and dark currant. The mouth on this medium body shows impressive fruit structure, with lovely mouth coating and drying tannin, along with blackberry, rich mineral, herb, graphite, and green notes. The finish is long and green with sweet dill, tobacco, chocolate, showing green notes, and an overwhelming feeling of sweet notes, more sweet fruit than previous vintages, but finishing with leather and mineral.

It was wonderful but nose not as strong as expected, may have waited a year too long
