Ok for a B teamer. Little flat. Don’t go out of your way.

It's got the power, and it's light on its feet, finesse with depth. This is quality. Nice blue fruit, with cherry backbone

Fruit aromas balanced by earthy aromas, as you'd hope for from a WA cab vs a CA cab. A lot of acid is still present giving it a lighter body, fruit forward with some of the earthy notes coming through. Some lingering tannins. Overall, very underwhelming.

Absolutely fantastic. A little pepper, cloves, and oak give spice to bold fruit.
