A lovely blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot, 3% Malbec, 2% Petit Verdot from the successful 2012 vintage in California, the wine has a lovely deep color, the nose is complex with notes of cofffee, black cherries, licorice all blend into a full bodied wine, with dry firm tanning that would benefit from a few more tears in the cellar. My score 89, drink to 2023

Complex European structure. Loads of cassis, cedar, earth, and herbs. Lovely balance and texture.

Smells like a typical aged CA Cab. Nice wine, didn’t blow me away. Drinking nice right now though with burgers. Solid showing.
