Drinking well but also craving more time in bottle. Didn’t stand up to its new world counterpart (‘14 Heitz Cabernet). Less aromatic but more tannic than the Heitz. Nearly equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with a splash of Petite Verdot. Has some thinking to do. Good but not great.

Dark fruit, full body and balanced. Evolves into a pleasant dry finish.

Had to wrestle the wine from the pooch. Another little bottle and the wine inside was fantastic.

This vintage is still great. Some fruit left with a long finish.
