An easy fun drink that still holds up well. Not super complicated but just delightful. Big fruit and no sharp elbows. Bottle was gone before we realized it.

In a good groove right now, and should have 3 to 7 healthy years ahead. It would be interesting to learn where in the Columbia Valley the grapes were grown. So good.

medium plus intensity aromas of rich, ripe red berry and black currant fruit, spice & toast, slight vanilla and cream, tiny herby note and alcohol heat. In the mouth the wine has concentrated red over black fruit, vanilla, cream, toast and that tiny green almost astringent note, medium minus front of mouth tannin - surprisingly untannic for a cab sav but it is very ripe - Medium plus length with the alcohol heat and the tiny tannin travelling the duration with the fruit. Bit flabby as well as touches of residual sugar but...it's very nice in a kind of alcoholic fruit cordial way. Hmm.

Should have bought more of this when it was available. But, regretfully did not. A stunner. Plenty of life remaining in this beauty.
