A giant in this price range. It's composed and elegant and complex. Definitely not for fans of fruit bombs.

The more I drink 2012 Napa the more I realize that I should stock this vintage , quite robust yet still elegant. This CS has a deep dark color, lovely enchanting nose of black current, coffee, after eight and a light touch if spice, full body with firm tannins, that needed a bit of decanting to open up, a long delicious dry finish. I would wait a couple of years before approaching. My score 89, drink 2017-2027

Deep, dark, tannic. Reluctant to open up but got drank anyways. There is nice stuffing in there but will need several years to come out.

No complaints. All the traits of big brother, just done on a smaller fashion.

Crisp but a little musky in taste.. Balanced across acidity tannic and fruity
