Think we had a corked wine. That pungent nose released a bit, but still tainted the experience. Softer tannins, but astringent taste. Too bad.

Very full bodied cab with lots of tannin so it needs some time open up. This wine will be outstanding after a few years in the bottle

First opens with a lot of dark berries with spice on the back. Dense fruity nose. Medium body with boysenberry, cranberry flavors. High acidity covers mild tannins that become present as it opens. After 2h shows some chocolate. Classic Oakville Cab at its best.

From the from the Martin Stelling Vineyard, planted on gravelly loam soil in the Napa Valley, the wine is a blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc, dark purple with focused aromas of black and dried red fruits, herb and earthiness. On the palate plum, blackberry and cassis with savory vanilla, cacao and espresso. Well balanced, super fine tannins, a touch of toasty oak carrying this wine to a lingering finish. Has plenty of room to run, have a bottle to open in 10 years!

One of their best vintages. Just opened it, so I’ll wait to@comment a little later - the initial test was amazing, hope decanting it was the right call.
