Wow. Big, powerful, rich. Yes, all of those. But the name of the game here is complexity. Like an orchestra vs a violin. Nuanced and so well integrated. Couldn't imagine it was 14 years old.so fresh.
Sugarb nailed the notes and score. Great expression of Mike’s wine and this is one that could easily go another five. Yet, it was absolutely delicious now. My friend opened an older bottle. Fabulous wine!

Perfection in a bottle. Tannins so wonderfully subdued yet still present, dark fruit there and expressive.

Typical Mike Smith cab - powerful fruit, great structure. Perfect time for drinking.
