A bit disappointing tonight. Kind of simple and one dimensional. Lack the breadth and depth I would normally expect.

Dark purple color. Leather and tobacco on nose. Full body, dry, balanced. Cassis and black cherry most prominent on a lovely, complex palate.

Big Saturday, feels good to wash away a 2016. Cherry and blueberry and raisin with long palette and a soft finish.

Decanted two hours. Full body, dry, balanced. Nicely structured with leather, tobacco, cassis, and blueberries. Outstanding!

Beautiful expression of a Dr. Crane Cabernet. Black currant, gravel, and black licorice. Lovely texture and a long finish.

This was a really excellent Dr. Crane Cabernet. Amazing density and excellent fruit expression. Lovely balanced and seamless. No hard edges anywhere to be found.
