Tight, rich and juicy-perfumed red currant and pure cherry leap from the glass. Voluptuous mouthfeel, anise, crushed blackfruits and minerals round out the finish.

Could be the best of the night. Rich, balanced, puppy fat gone. Now showing ethereal components. Stunning in its youth.

2012 Cabernet. One of the best lineups that was not overcrowded.

1.5 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A phenomenal dark ruby red color. On the nose: black fruit, currants, cedar, floral, leather, forest floor, and a hint of menthol. Taste: soft, rich, structured medium plus body wine with dark plum, cassis, earth, spice, milk chocolate, and a minerally dark cherry dry medium plus finish. YUM! Drinks well with the decant and a long life ahead of it!

Dark red fruit, licorice and mocha and not showing all its cards. Needs a good 3-5 more years in the cellar.
