Blackberry, ripe plum, cedar, and so smooth yet tannic. Lighter body than I expected but drinking perfect now. Great pairing with tri-tip.

So freaking big! Very heavily extracted. I don't think this wine will age much more than 5 more years. There is plenty of fresh fruit and seductive richness, but nothing is in balance. however, it's delicious. #clone4 #beaulieuvineyard #bv #cabernetsauvignon #napavalley #rutherford

Opened a 2009 and it was great. Dark and full of fruit. Velvet feel on balanced on the nose.
