I found this very enjoyable. Darker fruits which please across the palate. I liked a nice beam of gravel coursing through and a nice lingering finish. For the level of extraction here, it is wonderfully balanced.

Deep dark Rutherford fruit. Decanted for 60 minutes and turned out perfect. Casis, cooked plum, licorice. Nice tannins lend length and depth. This can slumber in the cellar for a decade.

Just a few B Cellars left in stock, nice wine but just overpriced for me at $125.00. All the Mike Smith entry level cabs at 60.00 - $70.00 which include Becklyn, Mcgah , Myriad & Scarlett seem to be a better bang for your buck

Oct 28th, 2018Silky. Cocoa. Not overblown. Tamer than the ehrlich and Beckstoffers. Like this better than 13. B's single vineyards are solid.
