Deep, dark ruby in color with a purplish rim.
Great nose of cherries, strawberries, vanilla, cloves, honey, cedar, forest floor, curves, green pepper, spices, licorice, black-currant and black pepper.
Full bodied and elegant with nice legs and high acidity.
Dry and tart on the palate with cherries, strawberries, plums, pomegranate, black currants, earth, oak, vanilla, licorice, black pepper and herbs.
Sour finish with huge, angular tannins.
Still very young and austere, but would be great in 3 to 5 years, yet I still enjoyed it with my filet mignon.
Needs an hour to open up, which I didn't have, unfortunately.
14.3% alcohol by volume.

Blueberry, pepper, leather, pomegranate, cocoa and cassis. This is an elegant cab from a label known by all. Drinks like a $40 bottle.

Non-existent nose, slight funk or barnyard on the attack, followed by cassis. Lighter weight than I remember and a little simple. Structure is great with nice acidity and supple tannins. Getting better as it gets some oxygen.
