There's a time and place for wines, and this was certainly opened at the wrong place and time. Among a plethora of aged greats, the 16' Vasse Cab Sauv was just drowned. It looked boring to be frank - far too polish, plush, soft, with a healthy dollop of pyrazine. Sadly, many didn't even finish their glass. I feel in a different situation, this would have been a solid tipple.

Mocha, salt air, black cherries, rich, yet savory, of the dried brush in the region, yet supple. Lovely.
