Cigar ash, spice box, tobacco leaf, and powdered cocoa, beautiful integrated tannins. Drink within a couple years.

This is the XIX 2013. A gorgeous, powerful, finely crafted Cabernet. Far exceeded expectations. Definitely will improve with a few years in the bottle. Not an estate wine - Dunham knows how to source fine fruit!

Toasty oakiness with vanilla undertones. Pepperiness with some jalapeño on the nose. Creamy on the palate with high alcohol

Oy. What a big boy! Even on night two. But only 13.8%.

2016 opened in 2024. On immediate open aroma of dark cherry, dusty, and slight tobacco. As it opens up the floral aromas of rose comes through. On the palate the fruits are mild and there is a bit of cocoa. Nice at first, but gets really jammy after it breaths. Some may like that, but not for me.

Very fruit forward showing black and red fruits. Spicy with some oak vanilla sub notes. Refined good length and well balanced.
