Very dense and structured wine

Solid fruit and paired well with steak.

1-2 hours airtime on decanter absolutely helped. — 5 days ago

A fresh, semi sweet wine ideal for summer! Mild acidity with hints of pear and green apple. Pairs very well with crackers, sharp cheddar cheese and grapes. It is a very good wine for the low pricepoint and fun to enjoy while snacking outdoors.  — a month ago

Fabulous. Son’s birthday dinner. Opened this and the Tor at the same time but saved this to go second thinking it needed more time on the decanter. Certainly more structured than the Tor with a lighter more restrained nose straight from the bottle but wow what power. With time that nose showed up and the bouquet leapt from the class. Classic delightful cab nose and dark fruit. Heavy, dense and oh so delicious on the palate. Finish lasted. This you knew was going to be great right from the start with a quick taste. Only got better with time and could have used even more than the 90 min decant. — 3 months ago

+1 hour decant(lots of fine/cloudy sediment). A splendid still inky dark garnet with bricking. On the nose: expressive notes of dark red fruit, currants, smoked meat, tobacco leaf, scorched earth, nutmeg. Taste: silky, layered, rich wine with ripe blackberry/blueberry, earth, baking spice, chocolate, and a long minerally espresso never-ending finish. YUM!! — 2 months ago

Much improved from the prior bottle of this vintage. There is significant fine sediment and taking more care in separating in the decant made for a world of difference. Decanted and enjoyed over 4+ hours. Was as vibrant and heady at the end as it was after 45 minutes. Deep structure and well balanced. Fruit was rippling. Just fantastic. — 8 months ago
