Scratch it folks ......an hour in the decanter. .....every bit of 95+ ......perfect melding of cherries, plums, and much more......delicious.... Think Parker and WS had it right!

Needs a little more time, but opens up after an hour. Love this boutique producer.

This wine was absolutely amazing and truly showed itself right out of the bottle. Amazing quality price point. Below $100, no decanting and was in full stride. Truly fully illustrated after 40 minutes; Dark luscious black fruit, an ever so slight finish of funky forest floor & an incredible & surprisingly lush well rounded given its age. The oak permeates throughout and is incredibly integrated from front to finish. Impeccable example of a superb Napa 💯 % Cabernet. I'm now regretting only having purchased 12!!! This is a superbly crafted wine & it's below $100 👌😱😱👌@Andrew Donovan @Megan Callahan Let me know if you haven't had this yet & I'll FedEx a bottle to you👍😜😜👍

Aromas of Mint, chocolate, and cedar. Savory herbs, cinnamon and dark red fruits. Sleek and lithe with a sweet finish.

May 6th, 2018#4 at 1/2 price bottle night. (When in Austin, go to Searsucker on Wednesday night!). For me, WOTN. That’s @Jason Marcelle thinking ‘put down your damn phone and pour me a glass’. In another league, lush and polished, this was a great sipper, massive layers of thick, palate coating fruits. Left us all wanting another taste. So refined and flat out delicious.
