Very dark in the glass. Black cherry fruit. Lovely fruit and structure in the mouth. After hours of air his improved. Nice showing.

Okay Cabernet. Strong overwhelming start, overly tannic finish. Perhaps it needs more time, and I did not have an opportunity to let it breathe. Needs steak.

Fruit fading but still echoes of a very nice wine. Tasted a day later & the tannins had softened so the wine was more enjoyable than the day before.

Drank it with rib-eye steak.
The wine was on its last leg, but you can tell it was a great cab.
