Not as good as I remember but possible it is past the peak. Blue fruits mostly with a hint of spice on the finish. Old school Heidi Barrett and a vineyard now used by Russell Bevan. Still darn good.

Black fruits, leather, well done pie crust on the nose. Silky smooth landing soft and gliding effortlessly across the palate with tiny, fine grained tannins and a precise amount of acidity to anchor this clean and delightfully balanced wine. I'd pick up more if I could!

Very nice and elegant. Still has some lovely black cherry fruit and starting to develop some nice cigar box secondary aromas.

Beautiful and complex cab-ish wine. Some interesting fruit flavors underneath the initial layer.
