Drinking well now, but might be going through a phase. I'm going to save the other bottle for at least another year.

Big and unctuous. Layered flavors of blackberries and roasted espresso beans. Silky tannin and a lasting finish. Delicious.

A really nice cab. A bit on the lighter side of a robust cab.

Very youthful Cabernet Sauvignon that showing structure and power.
Nose of blackberry, cedar and eucalyptus ....
Definitely will improve with bottle aging. (14.5% ABV)
