Jul 12th, 20231972 vintage. 96% Cabernet Sauvignon.Mid-shoulder level. Amazing. Light, refined and fresh, evolving well in the glass, so decided to decant it, which made it blossom. What a surprise for this entry level wine. Abv. 11,5% (!).

May 12th, 2022Blend of 84% Cab Sauv, 4% Syrah, 4% Petite Sirah, 3% Merlot, 2% Touriga Nacional, 2% Cab Franc and 1% Charbono. Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruit, cedar and floral spice. On the palate flavors of ripe blackberry, black cherry and currants with complex spice showing notes of cacao, cinnamon and rich vanilla oak. Fine soft tannins, nice mouthfeel, great balance with acidity, long finish, ending with oak, herb and mineral notes. Nice!

Jan 26th, 2022So I opened this a few nights ago, it was okay. I didn’t get a chance to have any more until tonight. Wow! Very fruit forward and silky smooth. I’m really enjoying this on a chilly Florida evening! 😜 (56 degrees) cheers!

Deep dense red with rich fruit aromas with floral oak spice. On the palate blackberry & cherry flavors with cacao and toasty cedar notes.
