You have to love the labels from B&H. This is my last bottle of the 03 Cemetery. Perfect finish to a three bottle set. Fruit evolution that is near perfect. Black and blue fruit with just the right amount of minerals. Soft mouthfeel and ruby fruit finish.

2014 opened Jan 2018. Absolutely brilliant! Lavender, cinnamon, maybe a hint of cloves (?) on the nose. Ripe raspberries and cassis on on the front. Lovely smooth tannins all the way down with a perfect level of tartness on the finish. One of the best 100-percent Cabs I've ever had. I tried the 2012 a while back, and although the 2012 was very good, the 2014 is better!

Sooo good. Had it with chocolate dessert. Perfect paring. The wine is holding up very nice.

I know I know I know. I should've let this age but I didn't. So still delicious. Dark fruits, minerals talk to me, really nice.
