From 375ml Double decant and pour for sediment(lots of sediment). Still a dark garnet with little bricking. On the nose: such captivating expressive notes of perfumed stewed dark fruit, herbaceous, boiled meat, minty menthol, worn leather, tobacco leaf. Taste: Wow! in a beautiful spot right now....creamy, savory, silky wine with dried red fruit, earth, dark chocolate, graphite, dried herbs, old leather, and a beautiful lingering finish. YUM!!! It's what I want in an aged Napa cab...my wine of the week!

Licorice, star anise, baseball glove on the nose. Supple tannin, balanced fruit and acid. Perhaps my favorite valley Cabernet Sauvignon to date.
